    Romanian becomes second most common non-UK nationality - BBC News

    People with Romanian nationality have become the second most common non-British population living in the UK.

    The Office for National Statistics says the total number of Romanian nationals rose by 25% from 2016 to 2017, reaching 411,000.

    Of the 65,176,000 residents in the UK, 6.2 million were non-UK nationals - up by 4%.

    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Hmmm sounds like they need some of our Bobs shipping over


            Almost 315,000 workers in the STEM (sciences, technology, engineering and mathematics) sector are lacking in Germany, according to a study published by an economic research institute on Monday.
            The study, called the “MINT Spring Report 2018” and carried out by the Institut der deutschen Wirtschaft (IW), has found that nationwide the country lacks a significant amount of STEM workers.
            At the end of April this year, 314,800 vacant positions in STEM industries were unfilled. This establishes a "record high" since data collection began in 2011, the IW states

            Although they do look like they have been fast tracking from the International STEM powerhouses of Eritrea, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria

            Almost 16,400 employees across all four STEM areas came from Eritrea, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria in the third quarter of 2017, according to the study. This was a notable increase from a year earlier, when 8,000 workers from those four countries in technical professions were calculated in Germany.

              As was the Dutch team creating automation solutions to replace manual labour in farming as it is in short supply and wages are going up, maybe the B word is affecting them?

                Well let's face it, they're probably more educated than you.

                    There are highly educated people with Masters and PhDs from all sorts of countries.
                    Just like there are people who can't do STEM subjects from the countries that excel in those subjects.
                    Your comment merely exposes the fact that you lack logical thinking and are, in fact, a cretin.
                    Hard Brexit now!
