The other point to make.
Is that since around 1990 the uk population increased 10million.
Half of that , 5 million , is an ageing population 65 to 100yo.
People in the uk living longer.
More workers needed to pay their retirement.
Add the babyboomer period on top of that, uk was around 3.5 children per family in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Then, the uk doesn't want to help uk families to eat and get an education, the uk getting cheap educated Labour from abroad.
If the uk doesn't want immigration.
Then
1. Support uk families to have bigger family numbers ie 2.5 children per family instead of 1.4.
Other countries give tax incentives and support to have 3 children.
2. Support uk students to go through university instead of getting uk students £50k+ in debt before they start working.
Again poor and cheap government long term policy.
UK NEEDS IMMIGRATION, but uses it as a tool to use when failing .
Immigrants cannot vote, so very easy scapegoat.
