Woolley is right that technology has already taken away many unskilled or low-skilled repetitive work and now other jobs could be lost to technology such as professional drivers (taxi drivers, delivery drivers etc) being replaced by autonomous vehicles. That is then another swathe or the population who will be unemployed and our current society is not geared up for that. There is also ongoing discussions regarding the future of "white collar" work which has traditionally been seen as safe from automation. There are plenty of surveys showing what the future may hold in this regard so I won't go into detail here. Woolley is also correct that the beneficiaries from automation will not be the general population but will be those who own the means of production. they said that 30 years ago....... numbers in work has never been higher...... work changes all the time..... you either keep up or get left behind.....

woody2 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 this is the real reason remoans don't want the uk to leave without agreement....... the eu aren't offering a "deal" they want to tie the hands of the uk....... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.K. Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 15 hours ago, woolley said: There is no status quo. It's a dynamic situation that is merely at a point on a journey. Now THAT'S funny! I've read some Brexit BS on here but that has to be a new apogee! It's complete and utter BS but it's quality BS. Which I guess was enough to sucker folks into voting for it. The one saving grace is that if it's a no-deal exit then the gullible are unlikely to complain because no-one likes to look stupid.... Classic!

So in 30 years we have never come up with a viable method of controlling our borders electronically yet we are somehow going to not only invent the system but have it built, installed and operational by the 31st October 2019?

manxman1980 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Not surprised that the agreement on article 50 was prepared by the EU. It is after all the part of the process for leaving the organisation. It's not like you get to write the rules about how to leave a club or terminate the relationship with an employer is it? Do you think that the WTO will not have a set of rules that the UK will have to abide by without any say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
