No pay rise and no getting older after Wednesday? (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
wage freeze
'no pay' is the definition.
'wage freeze' can be an answer for 'pay' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'no' bit.
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wage freeze that I've seen before include "anti-inflationary measure" , "without the prospect of more money?" , "Period of pay restraint" , "restriction on pay" , "No chance of a raise" .)
