    Have you actually ran the math? Because they are not “taking your resources” and are held at a much higher standard than UK citizens in terms of being “productive”. Even illegal immigrants aren’t as harmful to the economy as you might think.

    The reason your rent is going up isn’t because of immigration lol. The bottom isn’t pulling us down, the top is isolating us. Youre angry at the wrong people and haven’t ran the actual math of where your costs are coming from. It could be argued more educated people would be working their ass off for less money if there were less immigrants in your country. Also you might be conflating immigrants with refugees.

    Alao youre going to have to back the claim of free housing and free food for life. Your analogy to mexico is ridiculous, the world doesn’t work like that, nor does the UK. It’s the same dumb argument that if we give ppl welfare, they won’t do anything of themselves, which nobody has the time to debate here for the millionth time.
