Welcome back Wayne
Not saying it was.
But the free movement of people is what has helped many businesses to be as successful as they are across the continent. Yet, as soon as times get hard the focus gets firmly directed on the negative and the fact that EU immigrants are net contributors is firmly overlooked.
We don't need to be in the Eu to let qualified people come here to do work. In fact being in the EU tends to restrict bringing people in from Non Eu countries. Why should it be easier for someone from Romania or Slovakia to come to the UK to work rather than someone from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand..........if we leave we can pick the best from wherever, maybe even the UK........
