This is a Patreon-only deep dive into what the establishment gets wrong about immigration.. I've made it public because it's suddenly more relevant than ever.
The Economist is a good proxy for establishment thinking. It's increasingly leftist and idealistic, and it's very influential. The Economist's main article for the year is on migration, so I've gone through it and broken apart its arguments and assumptions.
Left-wing idealists see immigration as an inherent moral good (diversity=strength, yay!), while politicians see Britain as a banal economic platform and people as GDP-generating nodes, so want a steady supply of cheap labour to inflate the economy.
Both are missing a realistic view of immigration and how some country's shared values and culture give rise to a prosperous, free and pleasant society while others don't.

Right there's your chance. Bar the gate to re-entry. When re-migration comes (and it will come) any "refugee" is either barred from re-entry or, if they've gone "home" for a visit they can be sent back.

[@GreatSageSunWukong]

I knew two Afghan men, brothers in their 20s who legged it over here to escape the Taliban the first time round, they left their mother behind, they never did try to get her over here, she's the one that should have been let in here not them. all they did was moan that the local council shoved them in a flat together instead of give them separate ones, hated those two absolutely entitled and blind to how good they had it. I couldn't get a council place at all and they got handed one within 6 months, fully furnished too.

Immigration to western welfare societies is a direct economic deficit business because it burdens public services very heavily. In the years 1995-2019, the total cost of immigration amounted to over €400 billion in the Netherlands. Corresponding figures for the UK are probably 3-4 times higher.

[@sirrathersplendid4825]

It baffles me how the economists can doctor the figures to make it look like mass immigration is a good thing. Sure, if you bring in even one person, he adds to the state’s economic activity, if only because his hotel has to be paid for, and his free iphone, and his food allowance, and therefore he adds to state GDP. But how is that a good thing if everyone here already has to pay for it? It’s bonkers, makes zero sense.

[@Camille_Anderson]

Most are African, Albanian or of M.Eastern origins and are military aged males. We are paying billions to hotels for their stay & then they receive priority stock social housing fully furnished and on full benefits. The billions wasted on human rights lawyers, especially the Muslim firms in London that were closed last year for processing fake asylum claims and showing them how to get past deportation, should be appropriated on far more worthy beneficiaries than them. I have seen way too many criminals pass our useless security checks and evade justice. This country is hemorrhaging money on people who are dishonest, ungrateful and undeserving of billions of our taxes whatsoever

I have the unfortunate privilege of being middle class in background, destitute and living in a council house in reality, after being made homeless by a landlady using that nice little legal loophole to reclaim the property without reason. As such, not only do I get to see reality as it actually is, and see how strained and broken basic services are now for those of us at the bottom, but I get to see middle class acquaintances constantly going on about the "far right" and telling me that my neighbour, who bought his council house and always drove a Mercedes, is a refugee - despite them knowing nothing about him. At university, while in the process of being made homeless, I was being told by middle-class peers that I was a fascist for my concerns. Now here I sit, trying desperately to sell books that nobody wants to read in an attempt to claw my way out of the gutter, and I can't even vote Reform in the hopes of some change steering this country back in the right direction, because there is no Reform candidate here - probably because the panic-election was specifically designed to prevent Reform from having a full-length campaign. Incidentally, isn't it about time we put a stop to that? Surely calling a snap election should be for emergencies only - not to wield election timing as a political weapon. Surely calling an early election for political purposes should be considered interference?

That's one thing he was correct on. Economic migration destroys families as well as countries. My country has huge economic emigration which skyrocketed once we joined the EU. The results are: - huge decline in local workforce quality and availability due to everyone with a bit of mettle and merit choosing the easy way out and emigrating instead of working hard to better the country and the society; - huge decline in number of children; as not only do the women also emigrate and birth children abroad, but the remaining population figures their kids will emigrate and so what's the point of having kids when you won't have a family when you age anyway

Couple of points: Does anyone remember the Zero Population Growth movement back in the 70s? Back then a smaller population was promoted by the leftists. I'm not against that, but I wonder what has changed and why the leftists are now pro-mass migration to increase the population (especially since it only benefits the capitalists who they hate). Also, right now Australia is facing a similar issue with a muslim MP (Fatima Payman) like the UK with that elected muslim councillor in Leeds (Mothin Ali). Australia has had better control of the borders, but has unfortunately still allowed the ☪️ancer in and allowed it to spread.

[@littlecatfeet9064]

There’s a small political party called the Sustainable Australia Party that believes in smaller population (especially in Australia, which is the driest continent and ecologically vulnerable). Otherwise, the very woke Greens, who used to be less radical, love open borders without any thought of how that will work economically and environmentally, and want the immigrants to be given new housing wherever. That probably means bulldozing a hell of a lot of trees in places like Southeast Queensland. Edit: and Fatima Payman is what used to be called a fifth columnist.

Yeah those international students who have entire families? What are they 40 years old? I Time to turn the screw on universities, you want foreign students you take all legal responsibilities for them. Fail their course? Deport.

You should have watched the FT economist yesterday on C4. Tom Harford said that immigration is making no difference to our economic mess. The program was called Skint

[@ukguy]

You have to be a dunce to think that it is doing nothing to our economy.

[@StooFras-TheFiresofHell.]

Immigration on the scale it is now is ruining many a country,and our so called overlords cannot see this,they keep telling us it's good for the economy,these educated idiots must think we all button up the back.🤬

That global % change is like 40 million people, the size of a medium European country. LOL

Truck driver wages have not gone up that much, maybe by a pound or two but not much, employers still want truck drivers to work nights, weekends, overtime for little or no extra and the facilities are still sh t.

3 per room is good. I was once in an apartment here in Fort McMurray, Alberta where the whole living room was a giant mattress. I counted 12 of them but maybe several inhabitants used one. The smell was unbearable.

Then what?

@Fatnothern. We build a better country for us, England for the English, Wales for the Welsh, Scotland for the Scottish, Northern Ireland for the Northern Irish. All under the one banner of the UK and the union flag.

Leo this is “expertly” done. I like your thought process 👍🏻👍🏻

[@peterd788]

You are right about the left moving rather than previous supporters of the left moving. In the 1970s union activists used to hand out leaflets saying "Brown faced Pakistanis will steal our jobs" in response to the UK accepting, mostly, Indians expelled from Uganda. The allegation of racism used to be a thing directed at the left rather than at conservatives.

[@doctorlolchicken7478]

Immigration - particularly illegal immigration and non-qualified (free) immigration - are basically legalized slavery. The economic motivation is identical.

[@Spitfire515O]

I’ve been saying the same thing for years. I was a 90’s liberal but had some conservative leanings, fan of guys like Larry Elder and Thomas Sowell, and believe that being non-partisan is the only way to be fair and objective. My core views haven’t changed, landed mostly in center, but now some label me as far right. What a joke.

[@jamesmoran5192]

Leo really needs to research the Kalergi Plan to get the background to all this.

I used to subscribe to the economist. But after you read every story over a year, you can see their agenda. The economist isn't financial information.

[@bhhbcc4573]

I had a chat with a tour guide in London. He explained that while he did speak about Churchill and company as controversial etc., he did not believe it personally, it is what he thought is expected of him. People know what they are allowed to say in public to survive. Sad really.

[@blairjones1351]

The middle-upper class types who write articles like that one are so smug and condescending, it’s absolutely disgusting. Pontificating to the unwashed masses, dismissing perfectly legitimate concerns as problematic or even non existent - it makes me sick.
