On UK fruit picking: yes and this is why I find the national post Brexit news here hilarious. "Farmers say locals can't be hired to pick fruit"- yes! at the wages being offered. For > £20p/h I'm sure the workers would materialise.
The UK for example has loads of jobs like fruit picking done by the cheapest labour allowable, in the worst conditions allowable. Those conditions are just legally mandated to be a bit better, they're still not great but the UK can afford and is willing to offer that basic level.
