Maisie: I think you are using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I merely raised a question because, other things equal, I would expect an increase in the supply of labour to reduce its price and the Bank of England study suggested, to a degree, that it has. It concluded that 'the biggest impact of immigration on wages is within the semi/unskilled services occupational group.' I took this to mean 'ordinary people'.
Jen: Indeed, we cannot fact-check the future. The impact of robots has been discussed in all continents, both as threat and opportunity. It is probably both but my guess is that the biggest impact will be at the lower end of the wage scale.
