the poor will benefit from higher wages when the flow of cheap labour dries up

Why didn't we just increase the minimum wage if we wanted to make poor people benefit from higher wages?

I have no specific wish to import millions and millions of people and pay then low wages

better to have a lower population that will create higher wages because the people will be worth the money.

high legal minimum simply create unemployment

Get over yourself ,your bemoaning a fact is becoming tiresome .

If you guys don't want to debate about brexit then you can simply ignore every post about it and post about something else, or stop reading these forums. Coming here, posting about brexit, then complaining when someone else does the same but with opposite views is stupid.

Fortunately pragmatism rules at the end of the day. Trade is 2 way in some form.

Does pragmatism rule? If that were that case countries wouldn't go to war or build self-aggrandising monuments or stage the Olympics or shut the border to Gibraltar or engage in Socialism.

I suspect that pragmatism does not rule in enough cases that to base the entire future of the UK's economy on it would be foolhar....ah, too late.

whilst agreeing in principle what do the other 160 countries do about that?
for example Aus etc?

your post seemed to wish harm on the people of the UK just to proof

Clapton, are you communicating in your second or third language? I ask because you seem to place such absurd and unreasonable interpretations on posts that you disagree with.

Since when has having no sympathy with someone meant wishing them harm?

I also have no sympathy with people who do not vote but then complain about the result. Do you think that means I wish them harm?

If you are indeed communicating in your first language I sympathise with your inability to comprehend such a basic text.

my view is that you would like the brexit to 'fail'.
my view is that you would especially like the people who voted brexit to suffer more than the others and that you would like the opportunity to say 'I told you so'.

Succinctly put.

The unwashed masses were warned over and over again on the economic consequences of brexit. They chose to ignore these warnings and voted based on xenophobia, illiteracy and ignorance, and to give the 'elite' a kicking.

Sympathy? No !!!!!!! way.

Many will find out the real meaning of 'don't bite the hand that feeds you' pretty soon.
