    people in the UK want lower food prices, but don’t want to be part of the EU common market

    Yup, it’s pretty dumb. But the way the majority feels is that they’ve had these arguments about Brexit for some many years they’re basically done at this point.

    And they want more doctors and dentists, but less immigration.

    Interestingly, even Reform, the most pro-brexit anti-immigration send everyone to Rwanda party still wants exceptions for doctors, dentists and nurses to allow them to come into the country at will. They are very much considered the exception for immigration.

      They’re not going to come without their family. And their family isn’t all doctors and nurses. That policy isn’t going to work if their husband / wife can’t join them or can’t work in the country. A lot are doctors from the EU. They don’t need to come to the UK to make money.
