The Green Party pledged a £15 minimum wage for all workers, attacking Labour for retreating on worker protections since taking office. The commitment forms part of the Greens' broader challenge to the government from the left, accusing Labour of abandoning campaign promises on employment rights. The party argues the current minimum wage falls short of what workers need to afford basic living costs. Labour has faced pressure from multiple directions on its economic agenda, with unions and progressive groups arguing the government has softened its stance on wages and job security compared to pledges made before the election. The Greens' position reflects ongoing tension within Britain's left-of-center politics over how aggressively to pursue worker-friendly policies amid concerns about business competitiveness and inflation.
