At one time I used to be quite liberally minded about immigration, believing that in a slow, low, flow, it is beneficial to a society. After all, it should lead to a blend of the good traits of different cultures and make a country stronger and more flexible.
But it is now wildly out of hand here in Britain, destabalising our infrastructure through sheer overpopulation (we're adding about half a million people a year to an island already too densely populated) and fracturing our social contract via large enclaves who do not share our values and, more importantly, have no interest in being a part of 'us' at all. Meanwhile, those who can afford to do so are fleeing the train-wreck, thus making a bad situation worse as they take their skills with them.
Too many are like this fellow:

Enough is enough. The Tories promised they would get a handle on things but they have failed to do so and if they can't do it then just how right-wing do we have to go before we reach the point where the cure is worse than the disease?
