There was a flower grower on the news saying he might have to ditch his crop as can't recruit pickers, claims he pays £1k/week on average with the best pickers earning £1.8k/week which I found eye opening that he can't fill those vacancies

That's pretty amazing, is it short term thought?

If its anything like grape picking its long, hard and painful work. Well my middle class capitalist pig body thought so in France. Specially the bending over all day and chopping bits of your fingers off then getting not only drunk at lunch but hungover as well.
Won't be doing that again.

But seriously where are these £30/h fruit picking jobs. I've got some weekends spare.
