The dark lord returns to the labour party.

The red Tory invasion is almost complete....

One of Britain`s biggest Warehouses Amazon does not have a problem getting Brits to work the 6am shift, it has a problem keeping them, hence it`s TV advertisement on job satisfaction, it is also a big investor of the micro chip that will make all these jobs redundant, Farmers struggling for crop pickers is farmers refusing to invest in technology and picking the cheap lower than the minimum wage worker option.
there was a skill shortage, decades ago we brought doctors in from mainly India and ended up with kabab shop on every corner, we still have a doctor shortage but now have a nurse shortage as well, where is your local student nurse accommodation?

Gosh - technology. Anything rather than employ people who want work, because they're foreign. So no new jobs for Brits with lower immigration, just for machines (probably Chinese tech).

I said STEM subjects, medical staff is something else. Anyway, I reckon the nearest specialist student nurse accommodation is JMU in Liverpool.

I recruit in STEM.

We really do need to be guiding as many as possible in to these fields but it’s not because people don’t want to do those jobs, there’s a lack of knowledge at school level about how good of a career it can be - it’s an advertising issue to youngsters.

Had I known what a software developer gets and how in demand they are, I’d have learned code at 16.

It’s why we need to import professionals in this area and why the government has given extra immigration points to people in this field.

Your probably right, but back when we needed Doctors it was hope hospital and i have 3 family members who trained there, i do believe in bringing immigrants only when we have shortages, but not when the Government creates those shortages, and we have no shortage of unskilled manual labour.

I have a few Friends that are software Developers they are on good money and move from company to company according to the contracts, it is a very under supported skill at school level.

I recruit them. £500,£600,£700 per day sometimes they earn.

Even before Covid they’d just work from home, outside of IR35.

I wish someone grabbed me at 14 and explained.

This is an economic problem, it is the price of following neo-liberal doctrines. Both the Tories and the Labour party under Blair were happy to follow this doctrine, only Corbyn broke from it, which is one the reasons why he was vilified as he went against the corporate elites like Amazon being able to pay shit wages.

There is a skills shortage because the free market means there is no desire to train people for the common good, just the corporate good. Training a Doctor costs money, training a stockbroker makes money.

The reason why we have so many restaurants from the Sub continent is always overlooked and simplified as being about immigration when it is isn't really. The chefs in the British Navy were traditionally from what is now Bangladesh, as they were experts in cooking meat that was old and obviously made curries with it. At the end of their service like the Gurhkha's today they became eligible for British citizenship. So they used the money they earned in the RN to start restaurants because they were cooks and hence you got the great British love of curry.

Keith has now asked for a reselection for the shortlist of a mayoral candidate for Liverpool after discovering the front runner is a socialist!

Can't be having them in positions of power can we...

Anyone got a link to this? Nothing in the news, including local, for weeks.

Is this one of those Twitter things again?

Something in me thinks the curry mile in Rusholme was not started by ex-RN cooks.
