[QUOTE="Lincoln75, post: 7805202, member: 72614"] I`m not in favour of importing food but I see it as a better alternative to bringing in tens of thousands of immigrant workers ,its the lesser of the two evils, As I`ve said before growers / farmers need to make their industry an attractive place to work at and the moment it`s a last resort or a labour of love for many employee`s . Lets get realistic , who wants to be working long unsociable hours for minimum wage in poor conditions ? , its fine for the owner/famer to put up with that if he`s paying off a mortgage on the farm as he knows one day it`ll all be paid for but for employee`s they just go home to a rented council house.....for ever.
