Agricultural work is seasonal, farming isn't, the animals do not hibernate you know....then again, Mancs hibernate till the dole turns up

18% Shortage of staff in horse racing, that's about 2,000 jobs they cannot fill, even with Europeans.

Plenty of IT jobs around, I could start one next week......they are that desperate .

You forget that if you take a low paid job, you still get beneifts such as housing/council tax/family credit, etc.

they will take any job
.....Glad you agree with me & Rob. That is the difference with Europeans across the water, they will take any job, in any country, for any wage. The lazy British want a job on the door step, well paid, for doing as little as possible. Just look at the different workloads between Phil nurses & Brit nurses in any hosiptal. Guess who does around 70% of the work?
