Oh come on how dangerous is picking fruit ?
Common sense !
Yes picking has always been low but there are laws about minimum wage today .These are no doubt evaded by the use of migrant labour .
health and safety was your point.
I doubt you have proof they are evaded. It's just that our lot do not want to work for minimum wage because hard work is involved with this role.
Proof is that thousands of BRITISH people did apply to work .
Really you know you should stop lumping everyone in the same wheel barrow.
Not every Britain is a lazy no good and not every foreigner has the sun shining out of their nether regions !

That perception is skewed because pickers spend most of the day bending over, thus, the sun is more available for reflection.
