Nigel Parsons, exactly which of the groups on your fairly long bullet pointed list do you think should be entitled to the National Living Wage? None of those groups are workers at all. The one group I am slightly surprised to find on there is Members of the Armed Forces, though I would think that they would in any case be paid considerably more.
I am not making a claim for any of the listed groups. I am just providing the official guidance to which people are not entitled (at present).
For you to go on and say: What your list does not say is Immigrants or Seasonal Workers, these are entitled to the NLW just the same as anybody else.
That argument falls down as you equate them to "anybody else". As many others are excluded, then which 'anybody else' are you comparing them to?
Immigrants or seasonal workers may also be 'Company Directors' or 'Self-employed' and thus included in the list quoted.
