Between October 1 and 5, 1,368 people made it here over the Channel. On October 5, the UK recorded the highest number of migrant arrivals in a single day this year - 973.
13,000 on top of the 750,000 “irregular migrants” already in the UK. Double Frances 300,000, and making the UK have the largest “irregular migrant” population in Europe.
As for why that’s a problem? Because it takes away resources from the people who live here. They’re actively stealing our futures, as we pay for their accommodation, food, family planning, childcare, etc. I understand you don’t have the same social care that we do, but it costs a lot of money to house these people while we work our arses off and can’t even pay rent.
Imagine if you could just hop on a boat to Mexico, and the Mexican government would give you a free home and food for life. You didn’t even have to learn Spanish, you could just sit in your American community and never interact with anyone while getting everything. Would you understand why Mexicans would be angry at you?
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.
Still, to me, 750,000 on a population of 56 million doesn’t seem like a bunch (1.34%), but then we have people complaining here about 11 million on a population of 330 million (3.33%).
I’m probably biased, being an American, but those numbers don’t seem significant for a country with 56 million people.
13,000 migrants in 3 months?
So the overall population increased 0.0002321429?

Have you considered that you might be xenophobic?
I have no problem with people from other countries.
I have a problem with people coming here and using our tax money to fund their easy lives.
