For those who cannot read it the Telegraph (NB is that paper any longer a reputable source even for basic facts) is saying, based on an article in the Times Educational Supplement, that Labour are cooking the books over teacher recruitment numbers. Apparently, while they're counting the numbers in Secondary/Special education, they're not counting those in primary where teacher numbers are falling.

IIRC primary pupil numbers are falling quickly due to the low birth rate.

Don't be providing context and nuance here.

This is why previous and current government has flooded the UK with foreign cheap labour

It's a pretty common thing in trade agreements. Seems to apply to people posted between countries by their employer to avoid double taxation.

Is there any evidence for the assertion it applies to newly arriving migrants seeking work?

It's actually looking for the last vestige of the Tory party. Going to be there a while....

Or maybe lefties contemplating how Labour will do against Reform in upcoming elections? 😉

Why would any government allow undercut its own workforce, unless it is in cahoots with international big business.

Generally people are poorer in the UK than they were when I was a kid. Even on my very modest wage back then, was able to save and buy a terraced house when I was 20 years old.
