Can't decide if they're being on the nose with the implication that the general thought is that 'low skilled' = unnecessary and thus making a point that some people are twats who originally thought this, whilst having never been in that mindset themselves. Or that they actually believed that this was the case and they themselves have only just come around to this new and groundbreaking thought. I've always been of the belief that this 'low skilled' workforce (though I'm not sure what low skilled really is to be fair) have been a major importance to everything.

Tory MP Steve Double : "One of the things that this current crisis is teaching us is that many people that we consider to be low skilled are actually pretty crucial to the smooth running of our country and are in fact recognised key workers. Would [Patel] consider that once we're through this situation, we review our points based immigration system to reflect the things we've learn during this time?"
