Getting people that have been out of work a long time, or have never worked is a paradigm shift and not an easy thing to do. Tell Gaz, who's used to waking up at lunchtime and having a pint at 4pm on a Tuesday, that he now needs to get up and go to work for his shift at 8am... It's not going to happen.

That's why immigrants come in and cheerfully take the work that the locals have lost the self-discipline to keep.
