I find a lot of people are against immigration until you point at the football team they support.
Then they aren't quite so vocal.

Have you looked up the rules around UK sporting visas? Nah didn't think so

Yes,because football wasn't possible before mass immigration
You're absurd.

It’s all name calling and talking in riddles with them.

Rephrase the question:
What do people coming from other countries to work have to do with immigration?

Those multi-millionaire footballers from Italy, Egypt, Argentina etc etc etc are immigrants are they not?

It never fails to amuse me how easily working class people lap up the lies we are told about this subject. The value of your labour is inversely proportional to the supply of labour. To argue that we "need" these people to fill jobs is literally arguing for a paycut for yourself.

It's very simple supply and demand economics, unfortunately we allow our politicians to be lobbied by big corporations to keep the taps of cheap labour wide open and flowing. This takes all your leverage, as a worker, away. There will always be someone to replace you. You are being played, and advocating for it at the same time. If ever the useful idiot term was applicable...

Ill be honest that has actually given me some pause for thought. As i have said before, this is a nuanced subject.

An immigrant is someone who moves to another Country with the intention of living there permanently.
Footballers don't fall under that category.

Im not sure thats the definition Millie.

It is according to the dictionary, unless of course you know a different definition.

431’000.

Small boat arrivals 37’000.

So the “uncontrolled” number is almost insignificant.

Do you understand what im saying? Tories and Labour realise that we need a certain number of immigrants to come in and help with things like our care system and the nhs.

Maybe 431’000 net migration is too high, but the fact its halved vs 2023 doesbt really get mentioned.

Even when ive pointed it out on here, the responses are basically “oh well 431’000 is too much”.

Ok fine, but surely youre happy its dropped by 50%?

And the worrying thing for Starmer is that even if he got net migration to zero (which would be stupid), his critics would not suddenly be satisfied, the next craving would be for deportations.

Some people are only interested in their own agenda's

Nah, people are interested why this Country is going down the toilet.

This 100%

Im 45 years old and I’ve never known a time like what we are currently living through now and this includes the thatcher years of miners strikes, poll tax and privatisation etc as well as the economic downturns and recession of the early 90’s and financial crash 2008 as well as Covid self inflicted economic crisis.

Something is definitely not right with the country and the current direction of travel and more and more people are getting angry about it and demanding change.

The country has a problem. Quick lets blame the immigrants (again)

All so predictable.
