I did, the slow closure of the EU reserve pool of labour is reducing unemployment and pulling people from the UK's reserve pool of labour - including those not economically active and those underemployed. If we manage to reduce our persistent high net immigration we will see further wage increases leading to further economic activity from those not partaking at the moment and also further investment in automation - all real positives for the UK. Let's hope we find a suitably brave government to go against the virtue-signalling authodoxy of mass migration and actually look after the futures of the British people.

How do you reconcile the fall in EU migration with the continuing even increasing numbers of non EU migration.

The reality is that there will be winners and losers - just like any political decision. Perhaps we should be asking the people whose wages have been rising or those whose rents have been falling?

Health care wages are set by the government, and have nothing to do with nasty foreigners pushing down wages.
