This narrative about British workers being too lazy to take up physical work does my head in. There are plenty of British workers earning a living in physically hard jobs such as construction, road or even grave diggers.
The real reason employers prefer foreign nationals is they are easier to exploit. No breaks, no holiday pay or other employment rights as generally they are unaware of them or reluctant in take advantage of them due to being summarily dismissed and never working again in the UK.
