So London is a cheaper place to live now then. They can get rid of those London allowances for jobs next! Laughing

So if we take the 146% as a UK average including London (assuming it's still in the UK) that must mean it has risen by more than 146% elsewhere Crying or Very sad

Feels like mine's gone up by around 200% since 1997. I wish the services had improved by the same amount.
