Oh yes nothing to do with brexit, I mean it's not like we had the right to return illegals to the country they entered from under it or return EU citizens who committed crime or were work shy, they were cheap labour and I was actually a committed kipper in the 90's when all the lower end jobs were minimum wage because of them but things had changed, they didn't want to live 6 to a house and do 300 hours a month anymore from what I could tell and because of it the wages were going up.
