  1. I didn't see any in Asda today either. Happy days.
  2. Except whe production has been hit by bad weather. I believe that to be the main, current cause. As per Chomper's link.
  3. Please let us know what it was you could not source. I believe, unlike some others, that personal experiences are useful. Keeps the scaremongery in the media in check.
  4. I understand that situation. However, I would like to know what Chomper could not source. I went to our local frech market 2 days ago and also popped into Lidl. I got everything I needed.
  5. Very enjoyable read, thanks. Especially the part about extreme weather, high energy prices and the Ukraine war playing a part. Funny that your previous post said "I’ve just had a reminder of Brexit failure this morning." Let me help you. Here is what you should have written "I’ve just had a reminder of Brexit failure seen witnessed some supply issues at supermarkets due to the effects of many factors, this morning."
  6. Predictable response. Funny but predictable. Of course, we don't accept personal experiences on here, do we?
  7. Please do tell what it was you could not source.
  8. Not at all. Fire away. As I pointed out, it was not me that suggested all jobs were in rural areas. That was someone else.
  9. They were more than welcome to stay if they had the required documentation. Staying past Brexit was a simple procedure. Just ask the millions that managed it.
  10. No. Not since Brexit. The cost of living crisis has been going since the end of Covid crisis and the Russian invasion of UK. Nice try though. Prior to Covid the UK had low inflation, low energy costs, low fuel costs, low interest rates......need I go on? No I don't. It's all on the big Ole WWW for all to see.
  11. Looks like you quoted the wrong person with the " not located in rural areas".
  12. No deflection. You quoted and asked me "what unemployed?". I answered. Shortages of supermarket jobs have been well publicised. There are many jobs in hospitals that require minimal " on the job training" such as; porters, HCAs, patient transport drivers, cooks, kitchen staff and domestics. Warehouses, Amazon and Lidl are always advertising. Factories, just ask Chomper. He keeps saying food processing is badly understaffed.
  13. Do you really believe the only jobs out there are picking fruit? Oh dear. How many of the unemployed live in the vicinity of a supermarket, factory, warehouse or hospital? Just 4 examples of where jobs are available.
  14. Complex? That's funny. You missed out the most important and relevant part. Never mind. Keep your blinkers on if it suits you.
  15. That's nice. However, it still appears you did not read my post.
  16. You clearly did not read my post. If you did, you selected bits you liked and fitted with your criteria.
  17. I know many many EU workers who dodon'work in a seasonal job, have been in UK for many years, paid tax and therefore did not meet with the bureaucracy you speak of. Let's face it, compared to many EU countries, salaries and working conditions are far superior in UK. Why would prople leave if they didn't have to? As asked of me by colleagues from Romania.
  18. The current unemployment rate in UK is 3.8%. That's quite a lot of people.
  19. That's a good point. I have been told by many colleagues, mainly Polish and Romanian, it was not that difficult to stay after Brexit so long as documents were in order. Such documents included tax and NI payment history. It seems many workers left not because they wanted to but because they had to.
  20. They might have thought it would encourage the unemployed to get off their backsides and do some work instead of scrounging benefits.
  21. It is strange that one posters suggests a "vast increase" in legal migration whilst, at the same time, you speak of people leaving and only high end migrants being sought.
  22. How strange. Other posters have been banging on about how Brexit caused so many migrants to leave and cause mass shortages of workers. Now you say migration has vastly increased. There have been lots of other reasons why illegal migration has increased. Namely the boom in people trafficing as a business. It's happened in EU countries too. It can,t be blamed on Brexit.
  23. Care to answer my question? Please also read my post again. I don’t recall suggesting what you seem to think I did.
  24. Quoting Wiki. Love it. So, governments implement policies. However, the post you quoted also suggested Farage being " involved". Are you suggesting all government advisors are elected?
