Destroy cultural integrity, national identity, create a low-trust society, become more authoritarian to manage low-trust society, import more immigrants at an exponential rate while house costs rise along with unemployment. The list keeps going. This is why far-right is surging on the polls. The country has completely lost all sense.

UK needs immigrants to increase stagnating productivity. this has been the case for decades and it's why no government has done, or will do anything serious to curb it.

Only a small minority of immigrants to the UK come through the skilled visa pathway, even if the health & social care visa numbers were added.

See figure 1.3a - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/migration-advisor...

Note that to the best of my knowledge, these numbers don't include the Afghan resettlement scheme which would further lower the proportion of employment driven visas.

what about nurses and cleaners

>>12ian3+xb1
The UK unemployment rate is 5%. That's around ~2 million people who are already here but can't find work.

Do you really mean to tell me that none of those people can work as cleaners?

>>arrows+Gl1
Of course they CAN but no one with better prospects and good command of English even if you pay a great salary.

>>mike50+Tq1
If they have "better prospects", why are they unemployed?
