It’s relevant because in a population of nearly 70 million. 39 thousand people, are in no way shape or form responsible for all the crap these flag waving ultranationalist are claiming.
There is a reason we call them fascists. It is because every argument they make matches the crap spread by every fascist leader in history. Turning to nationalism and groups of other to divide and distract opposition from the real cause of issues. Is exactly what wealth has done to oppress working class votes. Since the forming of democracy.
As per migration watch (an anti-migrant pressure group) using home office figures, since 2018 there have been 189,889 in total arriving illegally to the UK.
In 2024 alone, there were 948,000 people migrating into the UK and since 2018 every year has been above 600,000 which puts net legal migration to the UK at at least 4,200,000.
This means illegal migrants account for 4.5% of all people entering the country and yet account for 100% of the anti-migrant sentiment.

…yes, in fact, I strongly disagree with anti-migrant sentiment. I am talking about illegal immigration here. I don’t get how this is related. I think we need to stop blurring the lines between legal migrants and channel-hoppers.
It’s related because the rhetoric we get from those who vocally are anti-migrant is about how schools, hospitals, GPs, and other public services are coming under strain because of illegal migration which isn’t the case.
They’re coming under strain because of lack of investment and the increased pressure caused by legal migration.
I agree with every word you say. The reason I am anti illegal-immigrant is a matter of national security. While resources are a part of it, I don’t blame them purely for the country’s problems
Then let’s do that, then.
I don’t see how this is relevant.
