WTD has been responsible for declining wages across the board with many far reaching effects.
Nonsense! EU protects labour benefits and wages. You've really lost the plot. This is to do with health and safety. 48 hours work a week is sufficient for most people. That's 6 days a week at 8 hours. It's also to encourage work life balance. Obviously you need to get a new life. 
Overtime disappeared across the board resulting in all workers falling over themselves in the race to the bottom, chasing diminishing returns on their labour.
You are talking increase in population size all over the world and AI technologies and revaluation of skills. Have you checked to see what Java developers get?
Then came reduction in the standard working week, used to be 40 hrs + OT. Now down to 30/36 hrs + 0 OT.
This is a global trend with improved AI, mechanisation and introduction of robotics. Fuzzy logic and all that. Nothing to do with EU. WTD sets upper limit. You are very much confused about what's UK policy and what's coming down from EU!
Then came job share, where one decent paying job got cut in two so that neither recipient contributed anything to govt coffers and more than likely had their money topped up by state benefits. 16 hr jobs.
Nothing to do with EU!
Then we get bogus self employment where an individual works only for one company, but on the basis that they only work if there is work to be done. Into the bargain, they lose all rights to holiday pay and sickness benefits.
Nothing to do with EU!
Then we get 0 hrs contracts, where all of the workforce is held back because there is an infinite pool of unskilled/ semi skilled labour to call upon and to ensure that anyone in regular paid work does not benefit from OT or a pay rise etc.
Most EU countries outlaw zero hour contracts. FGS you are a bit like a rabbit in headlights. No idea where you are or what you are blabbering on about. I'd say you are more like a rabbit chasing tail lights so you can crash into one. Unbelievably so.
Then we have barriers to entry, where large corp are the only ones that can ever meet the threshold, either because of the cost of entry, membership of a certain body, meet some bogus criteria, or because the corps are the ones writing the rules.
That's UK for you. Privatising monopolies. ie BT and OpenReach point in example. When are you going to wake up?
Then we have "training certification", yet another layer of barrier to entry and another direct cost to the workforce. If you don't have the correct cert, then you ain't working until you get it.
This is alternative training to rip-off university training. It is also to do with good standards. Works in Germany. UK full of cowboys.
Then we have the University degree educated farce, whereby the school leavers are told they will need a higher qualification in order that they can stack shelves at Tesco.
Agree with you here. Uni degree rip-off. I'm recommending to put my kids through Cert programs on what ever area they choose to work in. Nothing to do with EU though. On the contrary you sound like a closet EU fan
All of this has come about as a direct result of EU membership, aided and abetted by govt collusion in allowing the crony corps to set the agenda.
Absolute total rubbish. 8@11@(C)ks. Really is. That's the 4th time I've sworn this year.
The people walked straight into the various traps and unbelievably, some of them still don't get it
