This is part of the problem. The venues that mention this are labeled "far right". The other ones try to ignore the issue because they want to pretend it isn't happening. But it shouldn't be a "far right" discussion. Everyone should be in on it because the consequences are so significant.

Venues claiming immigrants in the UK disproportionately consume resources often exhibit far-right traits. They rely on nationalist framing, selectively citing NHS or welfare burdens while omitting immigrant tax contributions and economic value (e.g., ONS data shows net fiscal positivity). The pattern: exaggeration, scapegoating, and "us vs. them" rhetoric—mirrors far-right strategies, prioritizing ideology over evidence. It’s less about resource analysis, more about exclusionary politics.
