I worked as a picker for Britain on just one farm for 8 weeks I saw 60 odd British people come and say it was too hard British worker ls can’t do the work and dumbass you can’t have free movement and Brexit so good bye to the eastern Europeans and no harvest for the Brits new to up the wages and living conditions for the workers or this will only continue
They get subsidised to employ foreign workers
fucken minimal wages as usaul
The government asked for 250000 volunteers to work as key workers 500000 people volunteered and you these people actually expect us to believe they couldn’t get any one to pick fruit this is a complete joke
How much is the hourly rate then? No comment 😅
Make a deal with Mexico

Pay proper wages then and you might get some Brits on board.

Paisa de ghare awtani
If they paid the Englishman a decent wage they wouldn’t have to rely on foreign workers. The Farmers have got themselves to blame
Get our own unemployed to pick the fruit. The farmers are laughing at the subsidies they get.? Pay our own folk a decent wage and we wouldn’t need foreign labour. At least the earnings would stay in this country instead of getting sent abroad to fund a shack building scheme in Eastern Europe.?
White South African most of them are farmers, why the British government does not give them citizenship . In the United States, there are a large number of poor white people of the British origin, why the British government does not give them citizenship. These immigrants are much more better than Iranian, Afghan, and Iraqi immigrants.
I have a great idea ALL people in britain claiming BENEFITS should be working for there handouts if they refuse STOP there benefits SIMPLE AS THAT. SCROUNGERS should work for there money. We don’t need foreigners.
Hello im john from malaysian
I would like to work at uk picking fruits.
I did this job 10 years ago when I arrive in uk , they pay a pittance, you need to wake up very early be on your feet all day and you are not pay p/ hour but p/ boxe or units , I make less then 30 pounds for 8 to 10 hours of work in one day that was also my last . I only but fruits or vegetables from Spain I’m not to contribute this English farmers to became rich with the misery of others . They even now pay The flights of Romanians that came here to pick fruit , I think they don’t even earn the minimum wage is why they don’t give jobs to local people , is a Disgrace
What a stupid farm owner that first one was …. you voted for it lump it
Why do reporters keep asking about Brexit. They hope to infuence those who are listning. Just report on the subject . Let the listener make up their own minds.
Where to apply for this jobs?
This is the same as the building industry. Because people are paying less, thinking they can get a foreign worker in for cheaper, the quality of tradesman has gone down.
Oh no where are the Europeans, i remember .Farage will pick it for you?
Lol that idiot is claiming that free movement of people will continue
Haha haha, the tories has stooped this for all of Us
This idiot moron, also vote for his own demise
This is a crock. I tried all the links, googled jobs picking fruit as we will do this happily for minimum wage and guess what?? The links are either broken, or they ‘have enough staff’
Very strange as I never see any fruit picking jobs at £15 p/h advertised on total jobs or reeds etc. Why is that. The British don’t want the job because we all assume it’s minimum wage. IF THATS CHANGED THEN TELL PEOPLE DUMB ARSES
The farmers/land owners are getting richer &richer they are a disgrace this is slavery pay more for the BRITISH workers let there food rot
There lots of British workers looking to do this job but the fruit pickers are not interested because they are wanting cheap labour from Eastern Europe
Did that farmer just say that he voted for Brexit but still wants free movement? 🤔
English tears of unfathomable sadness are delicious :)))
