There was a time when these jobs used to be done by Brits. What has happened is that wages have been squeezed by ever an increasing desire to make profit by the big retailers etc. All we are doing by importing foreign workers is to perpetuate that trend toward terrible pay and conditions. You on the left should care about that.

Surprised you support exploitation by long hours, low pay, dirty conditions and physically demanding work - you being one of those socialists and all that. We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

Good luck UK with that. Well, for start your figure of 100% dependency on foreign workers is simply not true - foreign workers make up around 36% of the farming workforce.

I think with that porkie you are getting confused with pig farming. "Guy Poskitt, chairman of the NFU’s national horticulture and potatoes board, farms near Goole in the East Riding of Yorkshire and employs some 180 eastern Europeans out of a workforce of 270 to 280. He says the British workers he has are good but he can’t find enough and describes the eastern Europeans as “fundamental to our business. If we are unable to employ them, we would be in a very dark place indeed. I do not see how we would be able to supply the supermarkets and the shops, the hotels and the restaurants with what they need. We would all be in a very serious position.” Big chest and massive boobs [Link]

And let's put this red herring/propaganda/outright lies about foreigners affecting pay to bed, shall we, as far as this is concerned: Mr Capper chair of the National Farmers’ Union (NFU) horticulture and potatoes board, is often asked why British people do not want to pick apples. “It’s not about pay,” she said. “A good picker may be earning £8, £9, £15 an hour. It's because they are foreign isn't it? You Right-tards don't want them here because they are foreign. Big chest and massive boobs [Link]

You on the left should care about that. Not really, largely they relied on traveller populations from Ireland and gypsies in the UK.

It's because they are foreign isn't it? You Right-tards don't want them here because they are foreign. The reason such work doesn't really appeal to many British people is that its seasonal. 15 an hour, 7 hours a day over a year is good enough, but in truth the reality is that this kind of work is for a month or two a year. Work such as this very much fits the idea of a temporary work force, and it would make sense to allow people period defined working visas to come to the UK to perform this work - as it will always prove difficult to staff from UK workers (it really only appeals to students).
