Despite being geographically proximate to the United Kingdom, the number of Irish citizens pursuing employment opportunities in the UK is diminishing. According to recent data from the recruitment platform Indeed, this trend is attributed to the rising anti-immigration sentiment among now former UK government officials.
Indeed's data reveals a significant shift: Ireland has fallen out of the top ten nationalities seeking work in the UK, contrasting to its second-place ranking in 2016. This decline is primarily attributed to Brexit, which has considerably affected the UK's attractiveness to workers from the European Union.
