Naturally so, we get over 10x the amount of legal migrants, entering through work and student visas, as we do Illegals.
As said by Farage himself, many of these individuals are lower paid workers- more skilled workers are not attracted to the UK very often due to better wages in regions such as the Gulf, USA, Oceania, or Richer Euro countries.
When you pump immigration to a level of 1.2 million like in 2023, it's not surprising that the income grows. However, with lower paid workers, a greater cost on the economy is added, in comparison to the benefit brought. We'd be much better off in the long term, investing and focusing on our own people than inflating our economy by importing millions.
Furthermore, the issue also lies in cultural and demographic change. Don't the British have a right to remain British? It is estimated that the non white population in the UK will rocket to well over 20% of the population by 2030, and projected to continuously grow beyond that. It is clear that Britain must put a close on this, and work with what they currently have. We must naturally accept a much more multiracial society now, especially due to the non white ethnic birthrate being much higher than the white british, but at the same time, we should cut off this demographic change and eradication of traditional british outlooks that is endorsed by the Econ forum types, as soon as possible.
