I am not kidding, a week never seems to go by without seeing another plumbers van in my small town!
If its not plumbers its kwiky-fix building maintainance guys. The market is totally saturated in Cumbria. All our local builders now do plumbing...where does it end.
I am going to get my electrical exams passed like a good boy and hopefully that will help trade?
There needs to be a humane "cull" to save the plumber species long term....
Well done Mike, improvise, adapt and overcome.

I suppose it's easy to be flippant when your livelihood isn't on the line or you're in an occupation which isn't drastically affected by immigrants or career change cowboys. Now if the country was suddenly flooded by immigrant solicitors and accountants or us plumbers decided to become bank managers and company directors it might cause just enough stink for someone to assess the situation and do something about it.
Solo, I dont think most of us are being "flippant", some of us realize the true affect of this "controlled" imigration.
Just look at prostitution and rackateering in London, its all romanian now.
Poor Cockney`s

bad workmanship creates more work for real tradesmen,
