I like Ferrari. Tells it like it is.

Another brain-fart from vetran.

Japan has next to no immigration at all but has the same effect.

Japan, Land of the Falling Wage - Bloomberg

It's a phenomenon throughout the industrialised world, due to increased automation and competition from cheap labour in Asia
Only the cognitive elite get paid well now. That will not change ever.

You could expel all immigrants tomorrow and wages would not rise in the long run.

HTH, BIKIW.

UK (lots of immigration) GDP per capita is higher - on all 3 different measures - than Japan (no immigration at all).

Switzerland has one of the highest GDPs per capita and also has far more immigrants per capita at > 20% of population.

Anyone who's been to Japan would know they're all packed in like sardines, whether it's on the train, their flat, their tiny work desks, where they spend 14 hours a day or their tiny hotel rooms.

video on site, he really tears into him.

Of course he does, Ferrari is a Tory (who doesn't like certain foreigners it seems looking at his record: https://www.theguardian.com/media/20...lumandrefugees ... Black information Link:)

He was going to stand as Mayor for London at one point but Johnson stood although it was difficult for the Tories on which one of the more obnoxious gits to pick to stand...
