“The way forward for our country is not to attract a large lever that marks uncontrolled immigration, and allows many people to do work,” he told the BBC.
Referring to the 2016 referendum which leads to the English exit from the European Union, Johnson said: “When people choose to change in 2016 …
they choose to the end of the damaged model of the British economy that relies on low wages and low skills and productivity Low chronic, and we move from it.

The UK has long suffered from a shortage of truck drivers, but the problem has arrived at the head with a Brexit combination, which ends the freedom of moving workers from the UE to England, and a pandemic, which is very limited to travel and stop training for domestic drivers should replace those who go to the country of origin they.
About 200 military personnel, including 100 drivers, will be taken to the road starting Monday to help alleviate the lack of fuel supply.
The gasoline retail association has been welcomed, but warns it will have a limited impact considering the relatively small amount involved.
The government also said Friday that it expanded an emergency visa program for thousands of foreign truck drivers.
