A group representing the UK construction industry (HERE) has warned the government about limiting freedom of movement which results in a lack of skills needed for building work.
The group representing Britain’s architects, surveyors, planers and builders said the free movement of labour within the EU has been “vital” to the growth and flexibility of the construction sector. “We are in the grip of our worst construction skills crisis in almost 20 years,” Amanda Clack, Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors president, said.
Apparently 12% of the 2.1 million construction workers are European.
So, we have the banks.the Japanese and the construction industry all calling (essentially) for freedom of movement. It looks like the government has a clear choice, crash the economy or ignore the electorate. What a problem. Prosper like never before.
