    Immigrants don’t cause lower wages. Lower pay causes lower wages.

      Supply and demand.

      More supply of labour means reduced wages.

      Local businesses not being able to attract local talent at low rates should mean they increase their rates, instead they find labour from elsewhere that will work for that low wages.

      Wage suppression and lack of capital investment are huge underreported issues in the UK.
