FOUR out of FIVE new jobs went to foreigners in the past decade, new report reveals

Totally different reasons though.

Back packing Brits do it in Australia to fund their trip. They are not there because they could not get a job here. No one unemployed with no money is spending the £1k+ for flights to Oz.
Those Brits are not the ones desperate for work here. They tend to be middle class and on a gap year.

It's pretty obvious the poster wanted the teenage benefit claimants (young care leavers and young parents) and not the middle class uni students who go backpacking around Aus to go fruit picking on British farms for a pittance, so social housing rules are very much relevant.

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So why can't the unemployed teens do it

Unemployed teens magic money out their arse and fly to Oz?

They will be very different groups of teens. The ones motivated enough to go to Australia and get work to fund their trip are not going same ones that are unemployed They probably work in the UK to fund the trip also and will have got more life experience to get a job when they get back. Some teens just have the get up and go and other don't

Oh FFS How thick are some people.? Unemployed teens living with parents and hopefully near the farm.

They won't be buying a house on seasonal work ( not that many teens but houses) 1 but they will have a couple of months work rather than languishing on under £100 a week universal credit while sat in their bedroom

Yes, because everyone lives near a farm 🙄

We were not even on about teens here... just general unemployed which could be people in their 60s. Do you think people in their 60s would be doing fruit picking?

The farm had a bus Is that singular or plural Do all the farms do it?

I would also question this
I also heard from a science professor at a British university that the majority of his team was foreign because most of the Brits with an education in science simply didn't know maths on a sufficiently high level.

Britains education results are actually pretty good compared to the rest of the world. The UK scores in the top ranks of the global Pisa ranking for maths (It's basically the UK, Estonia and all the rest are Asian countries in the top ten). At a higher education level the science training/research and the connections top universities have to businesses are usually cited by industry leaders as one of the things the UK has going for it for industry (countered by the high electricity costs, lack of space, Brexit etc). That doesn't mean that employers won't want to recruit from overseas as well because if you want someone who is the very best in a very specialist area you spread the net wide. The UK is also very attractive to very talented people from India/Asia. Partly because the pay is better. Partly because of the high regard its Universities are held in ironically. So UK graduates are competing against the very best of much more populous countries (who to be fair take maths very seriously and also do very well in the Pisa rankings). We have issues
But it is nonsense to suggest that science degrees from top UK universities are looked down on or providing substantially inferior graduates.
