UK and EU agree on a Trade Deal!

It is funny that most people always blame others for the problems. China became big because British ( and all the other) consumers wanted to buy cheap products. Everybody wanted to have more salary, more free time, etc. That resulted in more expensive hourly labor tariffs, resulting in more expensive British products. But the British that wanted more salary, more free time, etc did not understand that the job they did became also more expensive, chasing consumers away (to China and other cheap labor countries) to goods produced abroad.
The same is true for all the Western countries. The consumers in the Western world created the demand for Chinese products. They created the problem that they are now angry about. And these same people are now complaining????
Globalism did not lower wages or cut jobs. The consumers did all that. If everybody would refuse products made in China, China would not be so strong economical.

Check out home all products you have and watch how many or produced in cheap labor countries.

Trade deficit is a good measure to me to see how bad the situation is. A negative trade deficit means (to me) that there is an export of wealth to the country from which we import.

The same globalists who exported the jobs now want to import labour to get wages down. Luckily the U.K. is a sovereign democracy and we can vote for the Reform party who will stop this. Under the EU new world order the policy cannot be changed as it is not democratic.

Trust me, I'm far from Elite, I think it's the Elite that don't want Globalism!

Immigrants only do jobs, Brits won't do for wages much lower than they'll get out of bed for, brits would prefer to be benefit scroungers than the nasty jobs they do, without them doing shit jobs, the good jobs would turn to shit.

But you are extolling elite/globalist/owners of the means of production opinion that is not in the interest of the majority and is not democratic.

So you get a much inferior trading position to alleviate some people's irrational fears about their sovereignty. Meanwhile, the leaders of the US, UK, and Brazil have been thoroughly exposed for being complete clowns who mismanaged Covid in the worst way possible. Most politicians just aren't very good at large projects and long term thinking. Then they scramble dealing with reality, cost overruns. unforeseen outcomes that impact their constituents and/or the government budget. If they are clowns, it's just worse outcomes.

Yes, our trading position having left the EU is worse for the foreseeable future. However, our sovereign position as an independent nation is secured, rather than as a region of a politically united Europe. We therefore have independence but also the opportunity (no guarantee) of a greater prosperity owing to more competitive financial policies in the long-term future.

As I said Brits won't do jobs that nasty for even 3x's the wages of the immigrants will be very happy with.

Nothing, ever changes, same shit different day, you'll come to accept this when you get older.

lots of laid off people during COVID took some very mundane jobs as they had to. You just spew cliche without thinking.

Well some yes, others prefer benefits, like when they flew in 100 fruit pickers at the beginning of the lockdown, about the only plane to fly, madness.

If I get any poorer I'll be taking some £5 per hour cash job, don't get me wrong, not that proud, but refuse to use benefits, not there yet thankfully.

Most of these illegal immigrants cannot read or write in any Western language. I am curious how they can take over the majority of jobs.
Maybe just smart enough to clean toilets. But it is not sure they even know how a toilet in the Western world looks like.

Reality is that the large majority of these illegal immigrants are unemployed for years, if not for their entire life.

In the UK it seems the vast majority of illegal immigrants entered the country legally on a temporary visa that allowed a short visit, a temporary work permit, a student permit or while their application for asylum was being processed. Its arguable that we already know they're not committed criminals - we were originally happy to admit them and they were open enough to place themselves in the documented process.

I'd be happier if these immigrants could be swiftly processed and get jobs and start paying taxes like everyone else has to.
