People seeking a bright and promising future in a glamourised western society. Although there may have been a few cases in which immigrants have caused disruption and concern, many of these people are just trying to get a comfortable job to support their families in their originating countries. It is sad that they are just regarded as numbers on the news, but these are people who have travelled longer than any of us could ever imagine. As I have never been in that position myself, I cannot even begin to imagine the treacherous journey and anxiety. Personally, I believe that society has scapegoated immigrants by blaming them for the economic hardship the UK is currently facing, when actually immigrants have a positive impact on the economy.
Many citizens argue that immigrants are "taking peoples jobs". I would strongly argue that this is definitely not the case. Overall, I would not argue that we have 'too many immigrants'; this is not just because they positively impact the economy, but also because of the fact that these are people. To turn to them and regard them as "illegal" and unwanted after all they have been through is shameful.

Mass immigration will eventually lead to the demographic replacement of the native population so as a nativist I really dont care about whatever hardships they're are facing as it's not the British peoples problem. Mass immigration has a direct effect on the economy in which you've completely ignored despite the fact it is just simple supply and demand. Millions of people coming into the country lowers wages as there is an increased worker supply and also raises demand for goods therefore prices. Overall I believe immigration should be halted and mass remigration is a necessary process for both demographic security and fixing rhe economic problems this country faces.Millions need to go

GDP per capita has been stagnant/going down for years, too many immigrants claim benefits and provide nothing of worth. Too many immigrants end up committing rape, murder, assault and a miriad of other offenses on the native population, all of which could be avoided if they were never let in to begin with. All illegal immigrants should be deported. They broke the law to come here. It is impossible to properly vet them. They are unwanted. Millions of legal immigrants should also be deported as they are a net drain on the economy and have refused to integrate into British culture. Immigration is to blame for many economic hardships we face, but that is a problem of leadership, what must be done is we elect leadership that will halt immigration and deport millions of no good benefits scroungers and foreign criminals.

Living in Britain is not a right that everyone in the world is entitled to, no matter how far they have travelled or what kind of hardships they had left behind. Being British involves having the heritage, the culture, and the values of the nation and its people—a passport or residence permit is insufficient.
Furthermore, countries facing hardships will never improve if their citizens have the right to simply desert their homelands rather than stay and improve them. The claim that skilled migrant workers will benefit Britain is dependant on stripping the migrants’ native homelands… Read more
