Big Labour shortage here in Scotland!!

[Richardthe3rd]

With an increase in new builds and the shortage of good Timeserved Plumbers, many guys are now on very big money. £20/hour on some jobs is not uncommon. Self Employed guys are making £1-1.2K a week.
The tide has certainly turned, which is great!!

Richard, do not know where that info is from, I had a call from one of the big players offering me £24.84 for boiler service

We dont greatly see that in the other place Richard!

As far as I can tell in London the number of adverts for plumbing jobs in the evening Standard is far fewer. Just ONE a couple of days ago. 10-15 years ago there would have been five or six!

I can only imagine that the jobs are being filled by east europeans!

Ironically, the central heating trade is completely awash with one-man-bands DP. I say ironically, as prior to the 08 crash the best money you could make was in central heating & Gas servicing work.

Either would be a disaster for Scotland BA. I mean Labour get in to power, spend like a drunk sailor & get us deeper into debt!! The SNP couldn't run a Sweet Shop, since they took control of the NHS for example the waiting list time has doubled & the Hospitals are manky!!

No, the only way forward for the UK is UKip or the BNP. Get rid of the scroungers & British jobs for the Brits.

Can't argue with that.
