Darren · Answer 1

We have the following options to choose from

(a). There are over two million foreign-born workers in the United Kingdom.

(b). Migrant workers are a strain on the UK's economy and support few other jobs or industries.

(c). Migrant workers contribute taxes and pay into the national insurance.

(d). Migrant workers contribute $87 billion to the UK's economy and over $195 million to the UK's GDP

Explanation:

Option: (A) - There are over two million foreign-born workers in the United Kingdom.

Why this statement is wrong?

United Kingdom has a number of outsiders who are working for different firms and they contribute well to the economy of the state. As by recent analyses the number of Indians and Pakistanis along with other nationals have increased to a high number. Which makes up about 14% of the total population of the UK, which is obviously increased to some effected numbers and they are keeping in coming into the country.

Reason for high number of foreigners in UK?

There are large number of advanced and developed industrial regions inside the UK, which brings more opportunity for the talented individuals around the globe to show there metal. As these workers provide various opportunities for the country to do advancement in the various fields of science and technology. Eventually, it will benefit the workers too, providing them more incentives compared to the industries in the Asian region.

d. Migrant workers contribute $87 billion to the UK's economy and over $195 million to the UK's GDP

Answer:

a. There are over two million foreign-born workers in the United Kingdom

According to migrationobservatory, about 9.3million foreign-born workers are in the United Kingdom. This makes up about 14% of the total population of U. K. The size has been on the increase through the years. The two million given in the option is wrong and not a statement of fact.
