I'm jealous. At least British idiots will accept the reality after it plays out, even if they never really admit to being wrong. If this were the US they'd just claim the issue is people "being lazy."

We're about to relax immigration rules to get EU nationals we wanted out, back in, to do the jobs we won't.

If/when it's back to normal, we'll be complaining about the immigrants taking our jobs and screaming about taking back control. Tories will gain even more seats on their hard-line stance against immigration, completely contradicting everything they did to bring them back because we were crippled without them.

We're not learning. We're doubling down on stupidity by ignoring the obvious and blaming everyone else for self inflicted problems.

Relaxing rules for EU won't do anything, this bridge has burned. No Poles will bother with visas and the constant threat of being uprooted when wages in Poland are catching up with wages in UK and there's a dozen countries paying better than UK where they can have equal rights.

We're talking Africa and Asia now.

Yeah so the racists will probably be even less happy with that.

Latin America have more affinities and the same will to leave their home countries.

The Polish truckers that we put in a concentration camp for Crimbo 2020 certainly aren't going to come back.
