And...there it is, just an hour or two after the Nissan announcement, it turns out the British taxpayer is bribing Nissan to stay here - estimates vary between £100-500m but the government isn't honest enough to tell us the precise figure.



"We send the EU £350 million a week let's fund Nissan instead."

A shortage of skilled trade workers has developed as European Union migrants leave the UK and demand for home improvements rises, the founder of Homeserve has said.
Chief executive Richard Harpin said the shortages were "pretty bad" across the country, not just in construction but in other trades too.
He wants the government to put more trades on its jobs shortage list.
The Home Office has been asked for comment.
Mr Harpin, whose company also operates Checkatrade, told BBC Radio Four's Today programme he believed shortages were being caused by "mainly EU migrant workers going home".

Not entirely unforeseeable :dunce:

And, let's not forget, what we are seeing currently are the results of our Brexit supporting friends much trumpeted and heralded 'Good deal'.

There were a significant number on here calling for 'no deal' :dunce::dunce:

you can just see down the track that European folk such as chefs , tilers , carpenters , sommeliers/maitre de , and basically anyone else in Europe who has an occupation that is in demand in the UK will be allowed to enter and work , possibly paying an elevated rate of tax but still probably earning more than they would on the continent , the only alternative to that is for the younger Brits to embrace education in such fields and fill the voids that are left by the missing Euro's


i was never vociferously for or against Brexit basically because i don't live there any more .....hindsight is a wonderful thing...

Comedy Gold over the past few pages, the usual suspects trying to claim rising wages across a number of sectors (18pc across hospitality and catering) partly thanks to ending the supply of cheap Labour from the EU is a bad thing, followed by the utter despair at the positive jobs and investment news from Sunderland where those supposed Turkeys didn't vote for Xmas after all and finally ...

Over 320 posts and still not a single, sensible reply to the original question.
Anyone would be forgiven for thinking that no-one's life has been improved (although everyone is well aware that it's been detrimental to many).
Oh, well. :)

And repeating your old pastafarian trick of editing my posts and then quoting them. I wonder why you wouldn't Quote it unedited ?

As I pointed out before, no preparations had been made but when Johnson was elected and I realised the level of Idiocy we were dealing with (his and yours) all that changed. Of course, if you don't believe that to be true you could always find a post to the contrary (But remember, if you make up posts and then quote them, I'll show them up as lies just like every other time you've done that). And you still haven't told us what you think of the Irish Sea Border that you voted for ?

Or maybe I don't :lolol:

And how are you and your fellow unionists getting on with your alternative solution to the Northern Ireland protocol that you proposed, championed and voted for, before realising it was completely unimplementable :dunce:

(Hope your 'friend' has cheered up a bit :thumbsup:)

The labour shortage in hospitality is especially desperate. The government has mishandled furlough and Brexit just pours petrol on the fire.

It was a 45 minute wait for a drink in Wetherspoon's in Eastbourne last time I was in there, despite it not even being busy. They just can't get the staff now. Not surprising that hard of thinking Brexit voters think this a good thing when the educated ones like Tim Martin were telling them how great Brexit would be in 'Wetherspoon's News' etc. As a result of my experience I've barred myself from all branches of JD Wetherspoon's plc again.

How big was the bung to Nissan then? Why isn't the government telling us?

I realise that being ridiculous is truly your style, but even those few brain cells must see that it's only you and Bag O'Shite (with the occasional support from the B team of the Troll Squad) who post all this drivel?

'Britain is booming', my arse - you're fooling no-one but yourselves.
