Balanced? Just like you?
50% of your posts are pro-Brexit, and 50% are anti-Brexit are they?
I’ve never been afraid to say there are downsides to Brexit and it was not and never will be perfect. You just stubbornly refuse to acknowledge anything that is either good or has potential for such, you know like wages for drivers (and other trades for that matter) that have suffered from 18 years of unskilled, unqualified workers being flooded into the country and driving wages down!
And have all EU countries seen the same immigration? Is this an effect of being in the EU? Or was this an effect of the Blair gov taking a different course of action to other EU countries?
Does availability of extra labour force down pay in Germany for truck drivers?
I`ll give you a clue: No and No, would be good answers.
As I have said many times the EU has been blamed for UK choices.
We wont fix the real problem of poor labour protection laws, zero hour contracts, bad minimum pay, pathetic unemployment rates forcing workers into jobs where the gov pays workers benefits to subsidise bad bosses, if we dont recognise that most of the faults are due to UK decisions not EU ones.
Many of these problems don`t exist in other EU countries, so leaving the EU will make no difference to these real issues, will it?
Your points are fair. But the fact is the Blair government did not want to put a cap on the amount of immigration into the UK. And we got an influx of EE workers.
It should never of happened and if it did not happen we would still prob be in the EU.
But, I am not gonna blame people for voting for brexit. Even if it was not the European Unions fault but British Policy it is clear the mass immigration is just not popular among the British.
Heck this issue for many is more important then pretty much anything else. A lot of romoaners like to mention about the cost of living crisis and all the prices going up. But if you asked the average joe if they could go back to uncapped immigration or just keep the status quo most would prefer the status quo I am willing to bet.
People like to make out that people voting for brexit were either lied to, dumb, naive or racist.
Personally, I think all they cared about is capping immigration. ■■■■ all else.
And the EU needs to take some responsibility here. Because if they gave David Cameron a better deal that ■■■■■■■ would of never of called a referendum. Or if they gave Mrs May a decent deal then again, it would of not of been such an issue.
But nope. Open borders is such a core concept to them that they could not concede it.
The irony of all this BS is that I am pretty sure Romania and Bulgaria are still not apart of the Schengen Zone because of how fantastically corrupt they are. Yet, Their citizens can travel freely to all areas of the EU. It is also no surpise that many stolen UK vehicles end up in these two countries.
