The Fair Work Commission’s decision to increase the minimum wage from $24.10 per hour to $24.94 an hour

The fuck. That would be so great for society.

The actual number was $24.95 (AUD), an increase of 3.5%

Fair work commission still does work fairly well, despite the backsliding under 9 years of the LNP.

Though, due to cost of living, just keeping up with CPI is barely enough

And yeah, every time some right wing fuckwits are complaining about it
