There’s no excuse for house builders, they’ve been recording enormous profits for years. This latest spike in house prices is more money on top.

They also pay less

The average wage in housing construction is lower than it is in commercial construction and way lower than oil and gas

House building is considered less skill hence they call it house chucking or something similar

It's like a parody. All his reasons for voting out are just the usual, demonstrably untrue, nonsense that he's read in the Daily Mail or heard from Farage

I hope he's gone out of business and is living on the street. The **** dickhead

He’s lobbed a grenade at his own business because of some completely intangible things he’s been told are bad but his first hand experience is the opposite.

He says he was fed up of being told what to do by non elected bureaucrats in Luxembourg. I bet he could chop all his fingers off and still count on one hand how many times he has been told what to do by these non elected bureaucrats he is so fed up of he has destroyed his own business/life over. I don't know whether to loathe or pity him. 

I can't believe the classic follow up question to that wasn't asked. 

"What rule are you no longer having to follow now Brexit has been completed"

I've not seen anyone in a similar interview answer that question successfully yet.

The fact the video is over two years old is probably the main reason he'd have struggled to answer.

Ok missed that, but the question still works you just ask him to name a single rule he is frustrated by that he is looking forward to not having to follow. The entire Brexit campaign barely managed to answer that question outside of stopping foreigners from coming in and taking jobs. Mr fruit grower already has a pretty good rebuttal to that point.

and here is your classic Brexit voter

“Its a complete disaster but I didn’t think it would win”

"Oh no, my less than minimum wage slave labour from the poorest parts of the EU has dried up"

Quality of houses/flats going up is shocking as well. Cutting huge corners during the build.

I don't know if I'm more disgusted with the message, or the cowardice of sending it not just through the letterbox, but via the mail system instead of having the balls to directly deliver their own abuse.
