Just to chime in about immigrants, since I've seen them mentioned several times as hard working and willing to do so for little remuneration and you are suggesting that British people should be more like them. I am from one of those countries that come and work in UK. The people that work in the fields for cheap, live in horrible conditions in UK, just to be able to send money to their families back home, their life is not in UK.
That's not a role model for hardworking, these people are just desperate and would prefer to live a more normal, less hardworking life. |

Actually making a go of modern capitalism (or whatever we call this) requires a lot of steps, over a long time.
I'm sure plenty of immigrants manage the "go where the work is" and "earn more" but then fail to manage the next step.
It's hard. But it's the only option anyone has and it does work. No one is going to wave a magic wand and make the North of England (or those immigrants) NOT have to work hard and take risks and "make it work". All brexit does it reduce the opportunities they could have used...
Thats sort of my whole wpoint here: not only is there is no alternative, refusing to engage is why people are in this position to begin with.
