Interesting that JRM admitted there are a lot of remainers in the Conservative Party.

@dopeyb218 Also, immigration has INCREASED since Brexit. The difference is that Britain is now bringing in well-educated foreign workers at higher incomes. This means the Tories don't have to invest in education, they just import well-trained workers that other countries paid to educate. So, moving forward, British people will now receive less education and training so we will fill the low paying jobs and big business will import well-trained (at another country's expense) foreign workers to become the management and above. But you keep believing the Tories are helping the working classes if that's what the Daily Express is telling you.

@dopeyb218 Freedom of Movement was really working well for the UK. We weren't importing "millions of foreign workers into working class communities", people were coming to fill vacant jobs because the UK had the lowest unemployment rate in decades. So instead of driving wages down and creating unemployment, Freedom of Movement was enabling businesses to create even more jobs and there for produce even more goods than our native population could produce alone. More goods mean more profits for businesses and a higher GDP. Thanks to Brexit we now do not have enough bottom tier workers to sustain the pre-Brexit level of production. This means that production will go down and businesses will be forced to lay of higher-tier workers until those lower-tier positions are filled. Brexit has created a low-tier worker shortage and is therefore causing people from better-paying jobs to be forced out of work and then back into the lower-paying jobs that migrant workers used to do. Brexit is bringing wages DOWN over all. Any short term increases in wages due to Brexit will be relatively short-lived and will not compensate for the drop in wages across the board for many businesses.
