Pretty much tells you this stuff about the EU being to blame is pure BS. What the UK has is a culture of cheapness and not paying people for their work. Effectively the ideology pushed by their party for the last 30 years, which New Labour adopted. They also washed their hands of any form of production for services - it all turns out this was all a huge mistake. It's amazing how the Brexit slight of hand works and what it's mean to hide.

At the end of July 2021 it was £488 p.w. The Tories are comparing wage figures now to when they were at their lowest in the middle of the pandemic. Increasing wages are suddenly very important. However, when the triple lock on pensions was taken away the Tories told us to ignore wage increases as these were artificially high due to the pandemic and furlough. Double standards run right through this government. All of the things he wants to fix are the result of 11 years of Tory government.

    In the EU, Great Britain was the country that had opened its borders most widely for work immigration, especially for Eastern European workers. Incidentally, contrary to the conviction of many other countries, which demanded industry-specific transition periods etc., in order to prevent or cushion dumping wages at the expense of the national workforce. In the end, the British blamed the EU for the consequences of Great Britain’s own decisions. One wonders who has been ruling the country for 11 years when Johnson talks about the need to train workers for the jobs that EU citizens took over before Brexit.
    And now it is again the case that, for example, Boris Johnson, when it comes to Northern Ireland, no longer wants to hear about contracts that he both knows well and has personally signed.
