Er, because these are jobs British people are capable of doing. They should not have been done by Europeans, they should always have been done by our own people. That’s one of the main complaints Brexiteers were making. Europeans were undercutting us - driving down wages and taking their jobs.
This should all rectify itself once people emerge from the testing and training process, which was suspended during Covid and has only recently re-started. This will take some weeks to start turning things around.

There were plenty of people languishing on benefits pre-Covid. We should only pay benefits to those who are genuinely unable to work.
