\u00a0<\/b>Migrant workers in Britain \u00a0may soon find things difficult in the wake of \u00a0growing calls that more accommodation should be made for unemployed Britons.
The \u00a0ComRes survey, undertaken on behalf of The Independent on Sunday<\/i> \u00a0has revealed a hardening in voters’ attitudes to the issue of “British jobs for British workers”.
Three-quarters of the public, according to the survey, \u00a0think that it is wrong for the UK to recruit from overseas while a million young people are struggling to find jobs. Two-thirds of those questioned think that British firms should give UK citizens priority over other candidates from elsewhere in Europe when hiring new workers \u2013 even if this means Britain having to leave the European Union.
Another school of thought was also quoted as saying that employers and owners of businesses \u00a0should not be blamed \u00a0\u00a0for looking abroad “because too many British workers are lazy”.
ComRes interviewed 2,001 British adults online between \u00a0August 14 and 15 this year. Data were weighted to be demographically representative of all British adults. Data were also weighted by past vote recall.
The stance on immigration has changed radically in the past four years, as Britain has struggled with deepening recession and strained relations with its EU partners.
In 2009, almost six in 10 people agreed that all citizens of other EU countries should have the right to live and work in Britain.
Today, the same proportion think otherwise.<\/p>\n
