        This article exposes the "need" for migration. Illegals=cheap labor. The middle class suffers when these cheap workers drive down wages.Stop this and wages will rise. #BuildTheWall that beautiful 30 foot wall that you can see run for 100's of miles #MAGA

        I put it down to wishful thinking. Desperate desire that Brits to live down to Hollywood villain myth. Der Spiegel similarly.

        People love to trash migrants, but developed countries need them to do all those crap jobs their citizens will not.

        But as the article states, unemployment is already very low in farming areas - there simply aren’t excess Brits sitting around able to do these jobs!
