[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1057564, member: 72977"] Btw, saw these two articles yesterday and thought they were a good read. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/rishi-sunak-boris-johnson-manchester-wages-b1931859.html?utm_term=Autofeed&utm_medium=Social&utm_content=Echobox&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR3p-5SZxwikAw2sU7SWgtRBc0OS3VxwoLh-dSdPbpOHxChx4Bto5gB9KqQ#Echobox=1633350701[/URL] On top I also believe the government is trying to create a low paid British workforce under the guise of nationalism and getting people back into work. They are making the benefits system as unattractive as possible so that it will force people into those low paid jobs that were often filled by immigration. One thing they definitely don't want is a well-educated population who can think for themselves working in good, well paid jobs as that would hurt them in elections.
