No, haven't you heard? It's those pesky foreigners employing each other on the cheap. Nothing to do with anyone who voted Tory :lol:

I don't doubt that immigrants drive down wages. The threat of being replaced by cut price labour will curb wage demands.
Nearly as much as the thought of being laid off and then being forced to do your old job for benefit money.

Nothing to do with greedy, rich barstewards though or honest, taxpaying Brits like the Daily Heil's publisher :lol:
