    I know it’s supposed to be 8.91 but then isn’t there London waiting added on?

    Minimum wage here
    https://www.gov.uk/national-minimum-wage-rates
    does not include any London weighting, because it’s the same regardless of where you live. 
    There is a London living wage of £10.85 per hour but paying that is entirely down to the employer. There is no legal basis to it. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
