The effect mentioned started before Brexit, so the link has to be with something else - in the article's conclusion it's a related Tory problem, austerity

this is true, but the tory nonsense has exacerbated it. i (in uk) have a commercial carer (not nhs; i am bedbound) from lithuania (or estonia, or latvia - she keeps telling me & i keep forgetting) who is lovely, smart and kind. her only failing is that she can't cook, but that gives me an interest - last week i taught her how to do scrambled eggs on toast!

we need more people like this in the uk, not fewer. but our vile government will never get a clue.
