Japa: Nigerians Fill Up More Job Positions In UK Than Britons by SmartPolician: 2:07pm On Aug 13 |
Nigerians and Indians recorded the most growth in employment in the UK between 2019 and 2023, according to data from His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC). HMRC is the UK taxing authority that collects all direct and indirect taxes, and administers benefits and tax credit payments to residents. According to a freedom of information (FOI) request made by Neil O’Brien, member of parliament and former government minister, there were about 10 percent fewer employments for European Union (EU) nationals in the UK, and 69 percent more for people from outside the UK in the period under review. The FOI was made before last month’s general election. O’Brien said the figures showed the “extraordinary changes” in the job market since the introduction of Britain’s new post-Brexit migration system in January 2021. STEEP DECLINE IN EARNINGS FOR MIGRANTS Of the 1.481 million more employments which the UK recorded between the requested period, 1.465 million were accounted for by people from outside the EU, while UK nationals recorded 257,000. “Within that non-EU total, the biggest growth in employments in absolute terms were among nationals of India (+488,000), Nigeria (+279,000), Pakistan (+101,000), and Ghana (+55,000),” O’Brien wrote in the report analysis. “There were also 175,600 more employments held by people from unspecified other non-EU countries. “Obviously, there is no lump of labour, and whatever the other pros and cons of migration, there is no fixed number of jobs that migrants are competing for. “But it is pretty striking that the UK economy has created more additional employments for nationals of both India and Nigeria as single countries than for UK nationals over this period.” In the UK private sector, non-EU-nationals recorded a 1.2 million increase in employments while UK nationals secured only 29,000. However, in terms of earnings, India and Nigeria saw steep declines relative to UK nationals. According to the data, young working-age people from both countries earned 15 and 10 percent more than UK nationals of the same age before the pandemic, and earn less now. Ben Brindle, an economist at Oxford University’s Migration Observatory think tank, told the Daily Mail that evidence suggests that non-EU migrants are now doing jobs previously held by EU workers before Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Agbadorians keep voting lunatics into power and those incompetent leaders keep destroying Nigeria's economy, thereby forcing a significant number of us out of this country in search of greener pastures. I hope Brits don't wake up someday and tell Nigerians to return to their country! 4 Likes 1 Share |

SmartPolician: ![]() In your region where you dont vote in lunatics, how do they fare over there? Side by side, and bar Lagos, whats the ratio of the employed to unemployed in both regions? Whats the ratio of Job opportunities in both regions, bar Lagos? Isnt it the same region where 4 of the 5 states there pay still pay 18minimum wage? Ask local job seekers and all of them will tell you that no one gravitate towards the East for employment opportunities at all You dont vote in rubbish, yet we cant look up to your idea of leadership cause even your leaders seek for opportunities in other regions U turned a beautiful thread into an ugly sectional one 21 Likes 3 Shares |

Re: Japa: Nigerians Fill Up More Job Positions In UK Than Britons by DevilsEqual(m): 2:24pm On Aug 13 |
The population of British nationals is well below the available job opportunities, I guess I know our leaders are terrible, but if we were to swap places, there'd not have being enough job opportunities in the UK to cater for the millions of graduates we have here, let alone leaving enough spots for foreigners Not to downtalk the effort of the leaders there but it is what it is Thanks to them tho. 13 Likes |

The more the number of migrants available to take up menial jobs, the less the wages will gradually become. And after some time it will be financially useless to even emigrate to those countries |
