Robot & immigrants on exploitative visa conditions?
Somebody has to dig trenches and clean the hospital and deliver parcels, but instead we just see money being pissed up the wall for test and trace and banker bonuses.
Ideally, "low paid jobs" become more productive, so one trench digger gets a machine and extra cash and others move to green energy jobs, while some jobs like cleaning, well, you cannot always improve productivity so pay more.
And when it comes to jobs working with people, well, that's another area where you cannot really speed things up much (people gonna people) so......just pay more FFS.
But, it's pretty hard to pay more and not risk other problems, so it =should= totally happen but it's going to be a fight for any party. Tax system, education for life long learning, etc, it all needs changed, much easier to just blame Labour for supporting the strikes (for the right) while watch them fight over MPs going to the picket lines (because whatever they do, they will disappoint the left or the media goes after them)
Don't, they had a tory drone on last night saying this is still the case, they will train and educate anyone who wants it to get a job that is high wage or be promoted, not sure who then does all the low wage jobs that are left behind?
