Mottie must laugh his head off at you lot....Makes a tongue in cheek statement and sits back watching you all launch yourselves into orbits of outrage.Casts and sits back watching you all bite...Never fails.

The definition of trolling.

Evidence?

or is this a notchy-fact i.e. opinion?

, you better be ready with proof.

Interesting that Motorbiking asks me for evidence but ignores this post from Pete50 clearly written as a statement of fact:

Most of these people are paid wages far below the national minimum

Blatant political point scoring from Motorbiking, feeding his own confirmation bias.

 

[dontbelieveawordofit]

nobody has an opinion on here. they just want confirmation of facts of other peoples opinions. . bunch of sheep.

As Mottie pointed out, many migrant workers are taken advantage of and poorly housed, just so we can get cheap food. If working conditions and wages were increased, there may not be the need for migrant workers and indigenous unemployed could do the job ( only if it paid enough to get them off, or reduce their benefits). Yes, we would have to pay more for food, and then perhaps it would be appreciated more, and not thrown away. Primark is another example (other companies are the same) cheap clothes and other goods which end up in landfill as it's cheap enough to be disposable, a pair of shoes worn half a dozen times, then binned. I remember Asda doing jeans at £3 a pair, not worth washing them at that price.

Well get your wallet out.

Our new border control system will cost about £8bn in extra red tape and forms.

Government’s ‘new start’ will generate 215m customs declarations a year and need 50,000 extra customs agents


Jon Thompson, former head of HMRC, in 2018 estimated that the cost of each declaration could be £32.50, but cited a range from £20 up to a possible £55. The estimated 215m import and export declarations made by British traders would be mirrored by the same process by counterparties in the EU, meaning some 430m forms would have to be completed in total; that will add considerably to the cost of trade across a currently open border.
