The sum mentioned is actually for each person employed, so wages would be expected to come out it. However, as there are so many ways today of forcing people to work for nothing that part would become in many instances pure profit. And as Mr. Chuckles (or whoever) didn't bother to recruit anything like the number he was contracted to provide, even more profit. Meanwhile people are doing time for fiddling a few hundred quid in benefits.

Old, tired and somewhat disillusioned, but trying to keep up standards. Aware that capitalism cannot be reformed, but despairing of its dissolution in the near future, I use whatever means are available to me to avoid capitulation. I join forces with other resisters in the Industrial Workers of the World.

For that money I'd be happy to be ditched. Yet another example of the 'reward for failure' malaise amongst the boardrooms of this sceptered isle.
