Would nice to think things could be evened out, will never happen.

Why should nurses get paid much much less than lawyers for example.

The same reason as why professional footballers earn so much. Fewer people have the ability to become a lawyer, doctor, pro footballer than becoming a nurse. This is in no way to suggest I undervalue nurses, just pointing out that more people have what it requires to be one. Rarity comes at a price in life. It may seem unfair but as Isaac says it will never change

Maybe our political masters could impose a maximum wage, just as they are so happy to do with a minimum wage.

Well you were given the chance to vote for it:

From wiki: In 2017, the Leader of the Opposition Jeremy Corbyn called for an enforced wage ratio for any company awarded a government contract, of 20:1 between the executives and the lowest-paid employee.

But, oh. Its Corbyn.

EU wage ceiling

…and now Macron is calling for an EU-wide wage ceiling, so you voted against what you wanted. Twice.
The gammon is thick with this one.

Did you vote for Corbyn?
Did you vote to Remain?

I’m guessing no to both. Have you been keeping up with your medication?

Nothing, but a 'rich man's' trick.

"Something seriously odd is afoot in natural gas markets.
There's a BIG glut of gas in the UK.
Wholesale gas prices are the lowest in 18 months.
There is so much gas no-one is quite sure what to do with it
Yet far from falling, household gas bills are heading even higher."
