Equal Pay: The Wrong Way to Get There

UK Members of parliament are urging action to close the pay gap between men and women.  (Currently at 18% for full-time workers and 40% for part-time.)  Meanwhile, Birmingham council is vividly demonstrating the wrong way to close the gap: cutting the pay of traditionally male occupations. This has, unsurprisingly, led to a strike.  (Thanks, Jender-Parents!)
