As a former non-EU visa holder that was not my impression at all. Cheap eastern EU nationals is a thing. It's just not a viable thing. What you get is a bunch of EU nationals recruited from Hungary, Rommania, and Poland who will work for your underpaying position for 3-6 months. Then, once they qualify for unemployment benefits they'll leave for a job where the pay is better suited.
This underpaying of EU nationals relies on the naivete of EU nationals, but people get wise to whats going on fairly quickly.
Finally, the trade works both ways. People weren't just going to the UK for work. They were also being hired and sent their to facilitate trade with other EU members.
- Zenst 7y agoFrom the visa aspect, what is your view upon that with the changes - does the new system seem easier to you for non-EU nationals to actually get a visa?
- yardie 7y agoI think there has been a ratcheting up of visa requirements for all non-UK nationals. The nationalists have successfully quashed immigration from developing countries first, followed by commonwealth countries, and now through Brexit EU countries.
