Why Aren’t Brits Getting British Jobs?

from Afternoon Empire with Ian Collins Hosted by talkRADIO

Four out of five new jobs created over the past decade reportedly went to foreign nationals, according to a new report. Ben Habib, Chairman of Great British PAC, joins us to examine why British workers account for such a small share of new payroll jobs, whether employers have become too reliant on overseas recruitment and what needs to change to put British workers first. MI5 chief Sir Ken McCallum has warned that Britain faces growing threats from Russia, Iran and the misuse of artificial intelligence. David Patrikarakos, Special Correspondent at the Daily Mail, joins us to discuss the changing national security landscape, alongside warnings that some extreme right-wing individuals are increasingly moving from anti-immigration and anti-Muslim grievances towards terrorist intent. And Andrew Rosindell MP, Reform UK representative for Romford, joins us to discuss the row over Nigel Farage’s offer to Donald Trump involving the Chagos Islands and the Falkland Islands, after Kemi Badenoch branded the proposal humiliating. What would such an offer mean for Britain’s overseas territories and its relationship with the United States?
