Well the main reason for the growth in UK population is the neverending migration of various illegal migrants and undocumented criminals to the UK, who have to be housed at the taxpayers expense. They have also brought the NHS and various other social services to breaking point. This may all be good news for UK landlords, but not so good news for the vast majority of British people.
"Illegal" immigrants have a legal right to come here, and constitute about 10% of net emigration.
That sounds wonderful. Who would have known that illegal really meant legal? So basically you are saying that anyone in the world, legal or illegal, has a legal right to come to the UK and live here permanently at the UK taxpayers expense?
A pity that the British people were never asked about this, or informed about this.
