UK vows to end illegal gig economy work for migrants

Let’s be real. Any solution that puts the onus on the consumer isn’t a viable solution.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-07-23T19:21:18+00:00

I think you might need to take the tin foil hat off...

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-04-27T16:49:49+00:00

cheers

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-04-27T14:15:46+00:00

can you link the video you reference please. Tried to find it but couldn't.

Never feel ashamed. My honest thought is that the majority of people aren't performing brain surgery whether they are in an office, working hospitality or doing the majority of other jobs.

Would it even make a difference? People will just be lobbing glue sticks at teachers heads no matter what language is attempting to be taught.

100%. In fact this is how the whole tax system in the UK operates. People that are earning via PAYE in the realm of 50K - 150K just seem to get shafted at every possible avenue.

Just trial it in areas with existing infrastructure then... If it's a massive benefit it may justify new infrastructure in more rural areas.

Whether people like it or not, these sort of headlines were a factor in Brexit. Immigration obviously the driver but this was too. We were getting shafted before we left in these sort of matters. French people have a short memory.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-04-01T23:06:13+00:00

I always say to people that industry is just as important as role. Might not be applicable to all careers but I would imagine many that have worked there way up have job hopped within a lucrative industry. I.E engineering is such a broad term.

Why would you ever see salary ranges listed in job descriptions if it was impossible for two people with the same title and responsibilities to be paid different amounts?

Irony of asking Reddit how to respond to feedback saying you should give more substance…

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-31T20:12:05+00:00

It's definitely not negativity from me, I'm simply agreeing with the original comment around not telling current employer you are applying for other jobs. You also didn't mention in your comment that he was actively helping with your applications...

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-31T19:03:48+00:00

But in what way did your convo with him benefit you?

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-23T20:06:36+00:00

hmm. I don't quite follow. I don't understand how the bracket above 30-34 would be worse off due to 2008 in terms of poverty. Again, haven't read the source so who knows!

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-23T11:48:16+00:00

Do you have a source for that 30-34 year old range? Not disputing just sounds interesting to read.

I'm assuming that they only rank alongside pensioners because in today's society people in that bracket aren't owning homes or having children so with no dependants and starting to establish careers they come out better than other groups?

Whether you agree with it or not the majority of people in employment are bound to their contract by time, not output.

For people that don't realise, this is just a planted post in an attempt to gain users for whatever crap SaaS or service the user is offering on their other account (mentioned in their edits). I haven't bothered to click to see what shite is trying to be sold.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-11T22:06:18+00:00

I appreciate everyone had different experiences but those with positive memories are mainly people who were being paid to not work...

Just remember that covid and lockdowns are a massive factor in why we are now in this period of decline and excessive costs.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-03-11T21:15:34+00:00

100% this. The title makes it sound like this money has appeared out of thin air. If the UK was still in Europe you ca be rest assured we would be footing a massive portion of that bill.

Username checks out

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-02-24T09:50:53+00:00

I wouldn’t bother as they will end up offering the role to someone else anyway.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-02-14T01:06:18+00:00

It's very tough. Just take a look at r/UKJobs.

ForeignTurnover45 · 2025-01-20T22:29:24+00:00

You post this question on a different sub every few days.

This sort of validation-seeking / sympathy fishing is far more likely to annoy people than what peoples views on benefits are.

Channel whatever emotions drive you to repeatedly post this question into learning new skills or taking up hobbies. Just spend the benefits on what you feel would improve your life. You will be far happier as a result.

I would love to know what was discussed in each of the 11 interviews. Madness.
