"The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows that the average gross salary for full-time employees was £26,200 in 2011, an increase of 1.4pc from 2010"

This one is an average figure for the whole of the UK. For full time employees only. So it has its limitations and weaknesses, but it still has some meaning, all the same.
