A new report cautions that Brexit could result in massive labor shortages in the United Kingdom. According to The Migration Observatory of the University of Oxford, industries who are reliant on low and middle-skilled workers will be hit the hardest and over 3.5 European Union employees could be affected. The report foreshadows political difficulties, and concludes that Prime Minister May will have to determine which sectors will struggle because of the country's new closed border policy.
