IN COMPLETELY DIFFERENT JOBS!

Women work shorter hours, are less committed to their careers, less qualified, do less demanding are massively less dangerous jobs.

If women really do work for less than men then why employ men at all?

What Lynne s saying that any group in society who works hard, puts in extra hours and puts their lives at risk does not deserve to be rewarded for their efforts, and we should punish them by docking their wages to ensure less able, less determined and less useful employees, in much easier jobs do not go home with a smaller pay cheque.

Quite frankly I find Lynne’s contempt for such hard working and admirable people to be a disgrace, and an incredible insult.
