Spare me your generosity, because I'm bringing receipts.

If you'll notice, immigration virtually doubled after Brexit thanks to the government opening the doors and rubberstamping visas till 2024.

The UK is dependent on immigrants.

Always has been, and will increasingly be because of its aging population.

As the old question goes .... who is going to wipe your arse when you are old and decrepit ?

It won't be a "Candice" or "Wayne" from Essex that's for sure. :p

		>The UK is dependent on immigrants. Why move the goalposts? I was just fact checking you on your claim that UK removed access to low paid workers after Brexit when clearly they didn't, in fact they doubled immigration when you look at post-Brexit numbers, that's all. Whether huge immigration is good or not I didn't and won't get into.
