Is this well educated labour force the part of the voter base of the two biggest parties across the pond? if yes then I wish the very best to the manufacturing trials there. We already have seen the quality of Us manufacturing recently with Tesla cars. The times that made in America was synonymous with good quality are long gone.

We make pretty good Hondas and Toyotas, though. My household has a 20 year old Camry from Kentucky that starts practically every time you crank it (except when the battery is too old).
As a general rule, the quality of manufacturing output has far less to do with the workers, and more to do with the procedures that they're made to follow.

If you put people in a situation where they can only produce crap, then that's what you'll get.
