General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and either a link to reputable news source, or be a text post.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I can’t figure out what he’s blathering on about here. As much as Brexit is a heap of shit, everyone wants to make the best of it either by going back in with trade agreements or by non eu trade agreements, both of which we could have done while in the EU but it’s done now. I think he’s saying bad immigration ( as in poor working class people ) is down but good immigration ( middle class educated) is up. But there doesn’t seem to be any point made; it’s just data
I think the point is higher wages overall, due to high skill high wage immigration and low skill low wage is replaced with technological innovation and automation and less reliance on labour that goes home when shit hits the fan?
maybe. i dont think theres any guarantee of that actually happening according plan. It just feels like wishful thinking based on not alot
I work in agtech, there's a lot of money flowing into shortening food supply chains after covid, brexit and Russia invasion.
