[QUOTE="toquark, post: 7798094, member: 72428"] People lament the work shy nature of Brits but fail to consider the change in nature of the casual work environment over the last 50 years. There’s a lot less of it going around for a start. How easy is it [I]really[/I] for a hard working 18 year old without farming connections to find casual work? Anything which hasn’t been automated or mechanised has been done by immigrants for decades now. Employers don’t want to employ locals and for their part locals don’t want to be the only person in the field who speaks English. [/QUOTE]
