To respond to Mull's post of 21 July 2023. It is all very well taking a liberal approach when you live on an island far removed from the areas which are saturated with all manner of foreign immigrants. I suggest you stay in Kent, Sussex, Swindon, or many of the other places which have housing and services unable to meet the demands of all the immigrants, let alone the local people.
The people who have genuine cases to remain in the UK should stay here. I question how many of the immigrants have a genuine claim to remain here as in most cases, they have passed through numerous safe countries before they arrive here. When I lived in Brighton I knew people who had fled Sudan because they were at risk being Coptic Christians. I also knew someone from Syria who had come because his life was at risk. I don't dispute that these people had a case to remain in the UK.
You mention the 1950s, I lived in west London in the 1950s and recall the numbers of people who flooded in here then. This was due to another Tory, Harold MacMillan, they were encouraged over here to do the low paid work no one else wanted to do. Tory businesses wanted cheap labour and this was their solution. They also colonised whole areas of London, Southall being one of them. They didn't integrate with the UK population and set up their own ghettos where no English was spoken. I had family in Southall and they were one of a very few white families left in that area. They were forced out by being mugged, burgled, harassed and more. Before my father died he wanted to go and see some of the family graves in the cemetery. I made enquiries and was told it wasn't safe for a white person to go anywhere in that area.
For those who cry, "racist" the reality is that they are racist towards white people. They detest us with a passion. This country has deteriorated significantly since immigration was allowed on a substantial level. Most people I speak to say the same but they are scared to speak out about this subject.
