My experience working in European Low costs based in Europe has been that the majority of Pilots in those bases were Brits certainly as compared to any other individual country. That was a few years ago though. I would imagine Pilots forced to return to the UK would swamp the market in the UK with cheap Pilots. So no requirement for foreign modular course guys.
