Deliveroo boss treats himself to 'absurd' 22.5% pay rise

Despite being embroiled in a legal battle over pay and working conditions of its couriers, the Deliveroo boss Will Shu gave himself a 22.5% pay rise last year, in a move which has been described as “absurd”.

Shu, who set up Deliveroo in 2013, increased his salary to £124,999 and handed out close to £4.5million in share bonuses to Directors and hundreds of other head office staff – The Guardian reports.
