The market mechanism can correct that but we do need to get control over our borders to ensure that supply is kept to a manageable level. The truth is that Labour deliberately opened the floodgates to immigration for reasons of left wing dogma and Balir needed some crumbs for his lefty nutters, that being the real reason for their needing the min wage. Now the low skilled are suffering the consequences of both those policies and, as always from elft wing so called solutions, are the worse off for it.
