Immigration a Conversation

ONS projections show a UK population increase of 6.6 million by 2036, of which 6.1 million will be due to immigration. Annual net migration of 315,000 will lead to a projected population increase of nine million people by 2046. That's eight cities the size of Birmingham.

According to Migration Watch, "a child born today to an indigenous British couple would be in a minority in the country of his or her parents by the time they reach their 40s". We were never asked if we wanted that. We never voted for over a thousand years of history and culture being trashed in a couple generations.

In 2023, 171,000 houses were built in England and about 204,000 in the UK as a whole. The Government's target is 300,000 homes, but that target is based on the assumption that the UK has a net migration rate of 170,000 a year, that's a fiction. Today, Britain needs to build at least 515,000 new homes each year just to keep up with the extra demand. 

As this discussion shows, it's not just housing that is impacted by uncontrolled immigration. Health care, Schooling and jobs and wage suppression are too. There is also the dark side. People smuggling, Illegal immigrants and the black economy as well as unscrupulous people and companies using slave labour. It all adds up to a disgrace that should not happen in a country with our proud history.

In a discussion, chaired by Robert Oulds of the Bruges Group, these topics are explored by: Andrew Allison Chief Executive of the Freedom Association; Steven Morris General Secretary of the Workers of England Trade Union; Conservative Politician Andrew Bridgen and Daily Express Columnist Ciaran McGrath.
