FTSE 100 CEO gets more in less than 3 days than average worker pay for a yr.

Median CEO pay £4.22m, 113 times average worker.

Nothing to do with performance. Shareholder objections ignored.

Need worker-elected directors on boards. Let workers vote on exec pay.

We can’t go on like this.

In just two days, the average FTSE 100 CEO has made a median workers full time annual salary.

The right calls this “wealth creation”.

It’s wealth extraction.

Time to tax the rich.

FTSE 100 CEOs netted £550m in pay packets, 11% hike.

Shareholder revolts make no difference, execs collect up to 1,112 average worker pay. Corporations are private fiefdoms of execs.

Workers in same companies relying on food banks and charity.

Worker real average pay stuck at 2008 level.

CEO pay to that of the median full-time UK employee was 52:1 in FTSE 35O companies in 2023-24.

78:1 at FTSE 100.

That doesn't tell full story.

At Mitie it is 575:1; Tesco 431:1; Compassion 303:1.

Wealth generated collectively, pocketed by few. Workers forced to use food banks, rely on benefits.

Average FTSE 100 CEO pay up 8.6% last year to over £5,000,000. While most people's salaries are struggling to to keep up with inflation. This is obscene.

The problem with treating this as a joke is that "femboy hooters" would blow up the FTSE 100 within hours of its launch
Strip clubs, topless bars, Hooters etc have an opportunity to do something really funny and insist on making their workforce 50% male in order to comply with anti-DEI mandates. Those ladies are taking jobs away from red-blooded American men who need the work
