Britain tried to grow its economy not by investment in capital and skills (which requires work and deferred gratification) but by increasing the number of workers and consumers through mass immigration (which only requires issuing visas). This model has been a failure.

The number of Afghans claiming to be interpreters is very suspicious. 48,601 interpreter visas for the USA were given to Afghans between 2007-17. At peak, there were 100,000 US troops there. That’s an “interpreter” to every 2 soldiers. During the withdrawal there were 20,000

@ursine_meeting Leicester Square is an absolute disgrace. Probably more footfall than any other place in Europe, and it's still full of these front shops, crap street art, and Dawah people.

Independent Muslim candidates depriving Labour of a few seats might be a good thing in the long run. If anything is going to cause Labour to rethink immigration and multiculturalism, this is it.

There are some, possibly inspired by the work of Peter Singer, who don't care if life in Britain gets worse for its current citizens, if it is still better for a new arrival from Lagos. This is quite mad, but it is probably what motivates people like Sam Bowman, for example.

The less articulate they are, the better. The more clientelism, the better. The more drooling Mirpuri clansmen harassing female Labour canvassers, the better. This is accelerationism in action!

@SholaMos1 I think Jews are indeed better citizens than those demographics who can't clean the mould out of their state-subsidised flats. The Israeli cause is superior to Islamism. The state should treat different things differently.

We've seen record numbers of immigrants, combined with economic stagnation, a collapse in productivity, high taxes, stratospheric increases in housing costs (for most people their biggest expense), and the services we were supposed to need immigrants to run aren't working either.

I've often said British businesses are the country's biggest Welfare Queens. They persistently refuse to invest in capital and their own labour force, while we see constant pleading by the CBI for open door immigration.

@BellaWallerstei Jews have been in Britain long before multiculturalism became state ideology. It was only October 2000 when a report from the Commission on the Future of Multi-Ethnic Britain recommended that Britain be turned into “a community of communities” and there be no national culture.

@jasonomahony This is a broad statement that ignores: 1. There are many ways of giving out visas. Some systems clearly work better than others. 2. Immigrants aren't a single bloc. They have vastly different life outcomes if you disaggregate by national origin, skills, etc.

@SangitaMyska Only 4% of UK citizenship applications are refused. It's more enlightening to look at the foreign-born share of people in social housing. It's also good practice to disaggregate by area. The situation in London, our most productive city, is absolutely shocking!

In 1995, Peter Brimelow’s ‘Alien Nation’ argued that adding more people doesn’t create wealth. In fact, quoting one of Thatcher’s economic advisors, he says labour AND capital are minor factors in production. What matters is new ideas.

Not long ago, the economic case for immigration was considered settled. Even many restrictionists conceded this, and tried to argue on purely cultural grounds. There were notable exceptions.

This guy is editor of the largest English-language Islamic news and opinion site. This is mainstream, normative Islam. Allowing mass immigration from some of the stupidest, feral populations of the world was Britain's greatest ever mistake.

Most immigration restrictionists will concede that if they are wrong, and we end up with crippling labour shortages, then we can release more visas. That error is easy to correct. But if the open borders position is wrong, it is EXTREMELY difficult to fix the resulting problems.

@FraserNelson This isn't about capitalism vs socialism. This is about a specific kind of economic liberalism that has dominated Britain for the past 30-40 years; one that has harmed British workers and promoted rent-seeking that contributes little to productivity.

@CharlotteCGill "Do young Brits have any rights to their homeland?" The sad answer is no, they don't. Both the far left and the Adam Smith Institute agree on that. This is why we need nationalism.

@AlexTaylorNews It's great that people of immigrant background look at the issue in terms of the national interest, rather than that of their particular tribe. To encourage otherwise is to play with fire.

The book argues that mass immigration leads to low-investment, low-productivity economies. Whenever America had crackdowns on visas for agricultural workers, for instance, produce never rotted in the fields. Yields went up because farmers invested in better production methods!

My Dad ran a construction business in the Blair era. Suddenly there was little incentive to hire and train a young British school leaver when a mature Eastern European man would show up looking for work, often willing to live in crowded HMOs until he could go home.
