Re: United Europe

The vast majority of those that voted remain accept what happened and are anxious to get it over with. Here in London, on various local/community websites, the LibDem2ndReferendum brigade try to drag us along to the demos but of course we're not interested. There was one in June, some papers say 100,000 from all over the country attended, nearer 10,000 I'd say.

Re: United Europe

Hi

It as a balance, the £ has fallen in value, so less coming here to work.

Wages increase and so more will come.

We need to get our own into work.

Re: United Europe

Employers are saying that there are vacancies but the people available don't have the skillset and EU workers are leaving in droves. How do you square that circle in the short term? Apparently by bringing in more non EU workers....

Re: United Europe

if locals don't have 'skill sets' then they have probably NEVER had them and therefore the training systems are incorrect - who are teaching the trades these days and is it sufficient and 'best matched'?

you can have too many in uni and not enough in polytechnics [if they still exist] Kids leaving school directly will definitely not have the skill sets.

maintaining full employment in any country is not playing with magic balls - it should be 'scientifically' managed as partially described above. I have been involved in 'adult education and training' for a longtime - sometimes everyone wants to go to uni cos they think it's the best and suddenly we have too many uni students who do not have the right skill sets!!

Re: United Europe

It's more convenient to let other countries train people and then poach them. We have been doing it for years.
