I’m not going to have sympathy for them, even if I read about their desperation in the Guardian. If we want to have jobs undercut by cheap foreign labour then that isn’t Brexit.

We can’t pick and choose who we let in on the basis of what suits metropolitan elites.

I forgot to mention that the au pair's family paid for the English lessons - and the results were very good. Au pair is not a job; they receive value from their attachment to the family and, although I'm not surprised at the bad egg families, I doubt that there is mass explotation.

Anyway, all very moot because there's no au pair visa and UK people don't need to learn English.
