    Here’s what Nigel Farage tweeted about it.
    It is disgrace that cheap foreign workers will replace 800 sacked P&O Ferries staff. Brexit was about putting our people first.

    I'm saying that Brexit has restricted the availabilty of labour in the UK, which has resulted in the available labour costing more. That's the second lesson in CSE economics, gm.

    Increased labour costs have consequences in industries that can offshore those costs, such as a ferry operator. No amount of bleating about the evils of low pay is going to change that and nor is straw manning me by suggesting that I favour low pay. Are you Roly in disguise?

    Thanks for the lesson Kerr, it seems you then by definition are an avid fan of Trickle Down Economics Theory, the downside of the rich getting a bigger slice and the poor getting the scraps is that the money doesnt always "trickle down" Trickle down is only effective in micro and macro theory not in the Global economy as the money gets transported away to another country.

    The Roly punch was a low blow

    On reflection, the Roly comment was out of order, but you do seem to struggle with basic concepts at times and put words into other people's mouths so I'm sure you can see where it came from.

    How has anything that I have written made me a fan of trickle down economics? Acknowleging the existence of reality doesn't make me a fan - or otherewise - of it. If I say that there have been significant diptheria outbreaks in Eastern Europe in recent years does that make me fan of diptheria?

    Brexit has consequences, some negative. Pretending otherwise doesn't alter that.

    If we had been still in the EU this would have still happened, some people are saying the PO contracts could be registered in Bermuda or even the Channel Islands. In effect this would make UK employment law useless according to an employment lawyer on the wireless, the whole affair is pretty rotten.

    This is what makes me sick on MM. ELK makes a valid point. Lolmorgan comes on and spouts absolute embarrassing boloney. When it is shown he was talking out of his rrse does he come on and apologise to ELK? Oh, no. He just disappears. Really, really pathetic. Lolmorgan I thought you were a bigger man than this: down in my estimation big time.s
