I'm not a conservative and the guy who posted this is an idiot for looking at breitbart. But this is accurate and as someone who splits their time between the US and UK, over migration is a big problem right now and not just something to just make fun of people for being concerned about. Here's an actual article not from a right wing rag:

that yahoo link is an article from the telegraph which has a recent history of posting right wing rage bait stories without checking veracity and claiming to have commissioned polls actually secretly commissioned by reform.

"The analysis by the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) found that the number of jobs recorded through PAYE increased by about 3.7 million between 2014 and the end of 2025" it sites factual info from a centre think tank. Again not a conservative but calling people idiots for having concerns with over migration says more about you than them.

I remember when British people had "concerns over migration" and that caused Brexit. What are they going to fuck up next?
