Europe has evaded classical market economy by importing more people who'd work for lower wages at the slightest hint of any labor shortage.
Pre-immigration such people would be called scabs.
Now that you have Brexit, raise the wages. That's why people voted for it in an unusual recognition of their self-interests.
- swarnie 5y agoIf you fancy annoying people go to a UK subreddit and claim Brexit was about workers rights, workers compensation and was humanitarian issue to help those most in need. Hilarious results will follow.
- dageshi 5y agoOnly masochists go near that sub, it's pretty much the most miserable place on the entire internet.
- swarnie 5y agoWhich one? UK, UKpol, and even AskUK all creep there on occasions.
- dageshi 5y agoUK UKpol is not far off nowadays either, that one didn't used to be so terrible. Never really read AskUK but I don't doubt it's similar. The only way forward is to keep it casual.
- Scoundreller 5y agoNot sure how /uk works, but /Canada is basically made up of people whose own metro/regional/provincial subreddits don’t have a critical mass, which basically makes it representative of low-population density areas in low-population density provinces.
- swarnie 5y ago/r/UK is mainly full of people who hate the county but are too young or unappealing to other countries to leave it. Its a weird British-themed sob fest
