UK needs 4300 more migrant workers,food rotting in fields,Brexit to blame
| just 0.6% from the UK.
Since the vote to leave the European Union in 2016, growers have warned repeatedly of damaging labour shortages, with recruiters reporting that Brexit has created the perception among foreign workers that the UK is xenophobic and racist.

| Getting what was asked for. And this show is only starting as UK has not left the EU yet. Then will be the real start of the show.

| For the EU it was a salvation to get rid of these stupid teabags. We just want the Scotts back, they're much skater.
| Brexit is a good thing.
Workers can still come to UK. Nothing wrong with controlled immigration.
That's why nation borders exist to begin with.
| Wowie time to hire citizens. What a shame.

If politicians get it worked out properly. Yeah.
But since when did they ever make decisions in peoples interest. It'll end up executed negatively and everyone will go "see we told you brexit was bad!"
Hopefully EU will collapse.
| Also why does UK need MIGRANT workers? As if there's somehow lack of unemployed people to begin with in UK...
| >>147149
Oh but it will not, believe me.
And brexit my young lad, is not about politics. The EU NEVER was meant to be a political entity, it was born as an economical union to lower costs and prices because the participants have pledged trust in each other.
So no, your politicians will not be able to save UK from being treated like any normal country under WTO regulation. It is time you all there remember that islands have a VERY high cost to live on, be they nation sized even.

| And the english were supposed to be educated and classy...
"The EU traces its origins from the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) and the European Economic Community (EEC), established, respectively, by the 1951 Treaty of Paris and 1957 Treaty of Rome. The original members of what came to be known as the European Communities, were the Inner Six; Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and West Germany."
| I also know that many brittons are convinced that UK was one of the founding states of the EU. Well no it is not the case. Actually uk's application was rejected the first time because of absurd conditions and arrogance. On the second try it was accepted, a bit to the displeasure of some because the arrogance and sense of superiority was still there. Throughout history UK has complied the least with EU regulation and has not fulfilled the promises it vowed to when it joined.
| Example of these are gradual shifting to use the metric system, driver seat on the left side of the cars. It never did any, only sometimes labeling the products in metric, weight, volume, measures, etc.
But enough of all this. I got bored from teaching for free. Just enjoy as much as you can what time you still are in the EU. Then be ready to bring that cash stash out the basement because many things will be a lot more expensive. You will see.
| Again, why does it have to be migrant workers?
| >>147671
Bullshit. There are still homeless people in UK. There are also many that would work almost any job just to pay their rent and bills.
If anything, this whole "needs more immigrants to work in fields" is bullshit.
So they could get underpaid labor? Or are Brits not the right ethnicity for them to exploit?
There's enough people to work if they got paid properly or got job offerings to begin with.
| >>147700 But that has been the entire point. Get work done by paying less and less. But cost and expenses will go up more very soon.
| >>147771
Good.
Fuck importing cheap labor.
Distribute wealth to people living in UK. It's the working class and people under suffer the most because some pajeets will shovel rocks for 40% of the pay.
| >>147814 Am sceptical about that wealth redistribution. The money to cover the higher costs for producing and importing things will be reflected in higher prices for everyday things, which will come from the pockets of the working class as well. The top shmucks will not be affected.
Bumpy road ahead.
| I don't really take the guardian that seriously, most of their articles are opinion pieces being posted as "news"
| I assume that EU will sooner or later decay into chaos. I mean, look at schwitzerland, and the other independent countrys; They're doing just fine! While Austria for example is absolutly shitly stuffed with refugees and a economy with a currency (euro) that has it's value cut in third!
| >>148103
Main problem in Austria (as in Hungary and Poland) aren't refugees but neonazism, corruption and nepotism.
| Switzerland is fiiiine.
Brexit was a mistake though. Not that it's my place to judge. Your countries your choices.
| >>148471
Yeah, Switzerland benefits from bank accounts of tax avoiders and dictators. Small countries only work as tax oasis and money washers.

| Fruit and vegetable farms across the UK were left short of thousands of migrant workers in 2017, leaving some produce to rot in the fields and farmers suffering big losses.
More than 4,300 vacancies went unfilled, according to new survey data from the National Farmers Union (NFU), which covers about half the horticultural labour market. The survey, seen exclusively by the Guardian, shows more than 99% of the seasonal workers recruited came from eastern Europe, with..
