  I think someone should notify the Advertising Standards Council or whatever they are called, the words 'active' and 'modern' are rather misleading.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Ouch!!! Clear breach of Equality laws with the ads, with the lovely wording of the extract ''Permanent 30 hrs. per week with salary related to age and experience but not less than the equivalent to the Living Wage''
  
  Is this council living in the dark ages, or just wanting to break the law!?!

  i am reading the law differently to you greg, i see it as discriminating against employing people of a certain age.
  
  this is about remuneration and i think that the ad should have referred to experience only but old habits die hard i suppose.
