So, I'm already reading that care home jobs "only" require a 20k income threshold.
Is that based on the new 'points system' that is floating about? Or was that a separate communication?

New system, shortage list.
So you get "locals" on minimum wage, but immigrants on 20.4K? That's going to cause bad blood... ideally the wage go up, but will they?

So, I'm already reading that care home jobs "only" require a 20k income threshold.
I'm wondering if this will end in:
Innovative entrepreneurs from mainland EU skip the UK cos why?
"Low skilled" UK workers get no help from immigrant workers as the visa is now tied to your employer and it's not likely to be bought over, so they put up and shut up.
Wages in "crappy" jobs won't go up, though they should (logically all care home workers get to 20K in time, but exploitation can also increase)
UK gets even more of an "avoid" image for mainland Europe / USA / etc.
And 10 years on the car industry is mostly gone and towns with big influxes but no housing / abuse of worker rights are no further...
