  • Voters in the UK head to the polls in a general election with immigration as a major issue facing them.
    Both major parties say they want to bring the number of immigrants down.
    But many industries say this is affecting them.
    Al Jazeera’s Milena Veselinovic visited a berry farm in the Vale of Evesham, Central England.
    It’s run by south Asian farmers who say they face severe labour shortages.

      My dad is a farmer, we prefer to pay less, thanks. We would like and need to leave a good amout of inheriatance money to our grandchildren/s. We dont want them to be poor like you. We can just stop growing, no problem for us, in the end you will be hungry and poor. Which do you prefer?
