Mind blown 🤯. People have been saying this for how long ? What about all those headlines saying every migrant was worth their own weight in gold. Surely some mistake.

In other news, people who stand in the rain too long get wet.

Report?!! Thats what Nigel_Farage said 3 years ago and you called him racist

Racist!

🥴 Der. Do you think. Tory’s love cheap labor. What better way to create it.

ply4hyre Morning Einstein

Incredibly wealthy yet incurably greedy people contribute even more to stagnating poverty pay. Look at the likes of Bezos and Trump who could double the wages of their lowest paid staff without even noticing the difference in personal wealth.

ply4hyre Colour me surprised

No shite Sherlock. How long have we known about the principle of supply and demand?

ply4hyre There is no may about it. It does and still is contributing to low wage growth. This is why the Conservatives will never significantly reduce immigration. Their 'race to the bottom' economy depends upon this. Never trust a Tory. Certainly not patel4witham

May....but is not in uk

No shit!

Hah a guardian headline through gritted teeth if ever there was.

Obviously

Na you're having a laff int ya

It must have been really painful for you to say this. Well done

No, you don’t say! Well I never. Blimey. Who would have thought it.

Wow, has the guardian gone back to its central left news articles? I might consider re-subscribing if so...

You don’t say.....
