Jackie Ashley's Answer

I said I'd come back to you if Jackie Ashley answered my email on her (incorrect) figures for the part time gender pay gap. Essentially, she got them from the Fawcett Society. As in:

The average woman working full-time is paid 17% less an hour than a man – and 38% less if her job is part-time.

That number is taken from the EOC as was:

Pay and income In 2005, average hourly earnings for women working full-time were £11.67, and for men were £14.08. This gave a full-time gender pay gap of 17.1%. Part-time women earned £8.68 on average, and comparing this figure with men’s average full-time earnings of £14.08 gives a part-time gender pay gap of 38.4%. Sources: ONS (2005) Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings 2005, revised December 2005.

Deliberately misleading, an entirely tendentious use of statistics.

Best to just think of the Fawcett Society as an irrelevance until they learn to count, don't you think?
