Importing low wage people only increases poverty by those numbers and also those persons replaced by them... increases the revenue of the CEO and corporate structures...not good for the citizenry as a whole.
Algo sent me this guy again. As I recall, he does climate change denial talking point. As I recall, the younger guy is a Federalist Society Cult-member.
But higher wages instead of low wages means you pay more for products/services. In reality, there is no gain.
@@gigelbecali8072 that is wrong, when a high wage worker earns let us say 50k £ annually, the individual generates more than that value for the profit making organization and doesn't necessarily mean the product is pricey - example Google /Apple employing people or say a clinic employing a GP /dentist
Very simple - only allow people with no dependants and earning annual payment of £50,000.
The ONS states that any immigrant earning below 40K contributes less and takes more from the system.
The UK has been taking in low wage earning immigrants en masse as compared to higher wage earning ones. It's not complicated at all..and drop the whole high skilled vs low skilled thing, wages should be the sole criterion.
Marx said this
Hardly startling news. Many have been saying this for years.

When you cant stand the truth,you deny the truth
It is important to distinguish between "denying the truth" == calling those who speak the truth liars; and "suppressing the truth" == sending people who tell the truth to court, jails, fining them, making them wear ankle bracelets etc.

Konstantin is right. Our political leaders over the last 27 years have lacked leadership skills, integrity, wisdom, foresight, competence and moral courage.
In short their wankers
I think most did exactly what they set out to do, destroy the west 😢
Curiously enough Konstantin is not from the UK.
They haven’t lacked anything.. this is all by design.. they WANT it like this. It’s why we see it across multiple countries… all with different governments yet using the same playbook
@SaltyShaman The more masons the merrier!
This is our ancestral homeland not an economic zone open to the World in the interests of international finance capitalism.
Capitalism like this cares little for national identity
@@seanmoran2743 It's not capitalism and it should care about national jurisdiction, but that's for the politicians to claim. Governments are acting like they own the land and can use it as for profit plantation colonies for the international megacorporations. Countries are being populated not just with workers but also with consumers, often on welfare or otherwise net detractors.
Saying the opposite of "practical" reality doesn't change reality I'm afraid
@@seanmoran2743True. Its one of the mayor flaws of Capitalism.
I love this comment
This makes me sound very conceited, but I realised this 20 years ago when the issue of mass migration was first enacted in the U.K. it has been frustrating trying to get my middle class and supposedly educated friends to understand his. But as long as they can have a character house with enormous equity and an Audi they don’t not want to know.
Pay nuts and you get Monkeys..
Highly Educated rich people never understand reality, only the working class understand that you actually need to work for what you get. Currently, the Chinese appear to understand this, but as they become increasingly wealthy they will in time also go crazy. Pride comes before a fall.
@@sandponics It's understandable. The people in 3rd class on the Titanic new they were endanger because of the water swishing around their ankles. Above the first class passengers danced the night away...still believing that the Titanic was unsinkable.
@@sandponics Definitely not when they effectively finance everything via their equity. Because of the way wealth is now structured in the UK, if house prices fall, just fall, not negative equity. But just that the equity reduces on average across the country, the UK's borrowing capacity will plummet. As our economic growth is only realised by the average person as an increase in national money supply due to credit, the results will be devastating. So every economic policy is deliberately chosen to not interrupt that process.
You are not alone . This was pub talk 20 years ago for me too .
Immigration Austerity.
Our wages are suppressed and our housing and public services are overwhelmed.
Immigrants on net are increasing average real wages in the UK.
Its delibarate ' the politicians always have the excuse this way ' ie somthing or somone to blame ' while they live in a life of luxury 🤔
@@AnAn___How? If you flood a market, it is worthless. Its basic economics.
Same here in the USSA.
@@AnAn___ they are not. Just because your gdp looks good IT doesnt mean that living standards are good. In UK they have been dropping for over 10.
I think it all started in the late 60's with the talk that the UK was on it's uppers. I know in the early 70's I could quit a job on Friday and walk into a jobs on Monday, jobs were aplenty but the talk was still going around about how bad it was, A lot were happy when we joined the EU and the big signs about the EU grants were springing up everywhere. Then the privatisation's started, power, water, rail. yes UK was up for sale and now to modern day there is nothing left. What the country used to be proud of "Bentley, Rolls Royce, Steel Jaguar, Land Rover, Aston Martin. Mini" have gone with many more. We used to make railway engines, now we can't we have to import them, we designed and built nuclear power stations, now we can't we have to get someone else to do it. Looking at it long term it has been government managed decline.
Great post
So you prefer to leave government-owned industries in the hands of politicians? I don't prefer to leave anything in the hands of politicians.
@@johnlightfoot9967 it's '70s or 70s btw. Putting an apostrophe in 70's means the single year of 1970, I'm assuming you want to refer to the whole decade.

Konstantin - having migrated to Australia from the UK they both share many problems. They might pay a bit more in some industries in Australia, but the house prices are out of control. Even more than the UK. The economy is based on mass migration and skyrocketing house prices.
The belief that the Federal Reserve would stop raising interest rates was the driving force behind the entire economic chaos. What should we do now that we have a situation where interest rates are crashing? At this point, how would you suggest that I safely allocate $300k?
Although the market is currently volatile, aren't the current valuations a result of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy and low interest rates? Therefore, my recommendation is that you consult a financial advisor who can give you entry and exit points for the shares that you are interested in.
Agreed, my portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% from early last year to date. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take another year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.
How can I participate in this? I aspire to establish a secure financlal future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Melissa Elise Robinson’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
The same thing is going on in Canada.
Why not put a threshold of income and a limit of dependants?
Say CAD 75,000 a year with 1 dependant ? I am sure that would filter out most of the economically undesirable immigrant population
immigrants too will become sick and old and require care, besides their motivation is not to work but to make use of the benefit system. more of them means more poverty
It's a ponzi scheme. They will need to import new low earners to support the ones them imported 30 years before....and it's not even supporting because on average the imported workers are net negative tax contributors. What the Establishment is really doing is an accounting trick that allows them to borrow more money. If the debt grows, but also, on paper, you have more potential tax payers it allows you to continue borrowing money.
@idontknow Most of them are using the NHS already and have contributed nothing. Also, since they come from poor countries, they are likely to have more health problems than people born in the U.K., as well as importing some very undesirable diseases that we had previously eradicated.
Two individual government funded studies in Norway have unveiled that in total migrants cost far more than their contributial gain. They quit work to become pensionairs or live on welfare at an earlier age than the indigenous people. They also are bigger spenders of helthcare, caused by lifestyle diseases, even thoug the alcohole consuption is low or non eksisting. Smoking, suggar consumption and obeasity seems to be the main negligence. I guess that it is not that easy to make such studies ine GB, caus many migrants is not registred.

I don't know why those young African guys want to go to the UK, they would be far better off staying at home and building up their own countries.
But it is their plan to impoverish the people, remember, you will own nothing and be happy…..
That's what this is all about
...and inflation is WAY WAY above what they are telling us here in the UK. Our weekly shop has doubled in price since 2018.
Same in the USA. Our governments are lying to us because they don’t want the backlash. In the USA they even changed the meaning of “inflation” and then they told it was “transitory”.
Wait, you don't trust the national inflation rates and you're instead citing your own shopping expenses? Really?
To be honest, we're seeing similar problems from the UK in Australia, we're just not as far along, but similarly our two big parties are absolutely worthless on dealing with them.
We will look like the UK in somewhere between 5-10 years.
Sure, economics is important, but the issue more near and dear to my heart is the fact that my society is becoming unrecognizable right in front of my eyes.
Where are you from and what has your society deviated from and towards?
This is on the money. Australia is also using a population ponzi to show growth rather than good policy based on sound economic advice.
Why do we have an aging population? Because families cannot afford houses or children
@@mikadavies660 How does that make people live longer?
@stephfoxwell4620 Aging population... is the percentage of older people to younger people. Not just that people live longer. Extere example.... Take one generation without any children. You now have an aging population, as the AVERAGE age is now higher.
@@mikadavies660 No it isn't.
Aging population is average age.
Average age has been massively impacted by life expectancy rising from 68 in 1950 to 83 today
@stephfoxwell4620 You just said it.... yourself. Aging population is AVERAGE AGE.... So remove children from the equation and the AVERAGE alters... No point in being smart if you can't work simple maths. As the sizes of families reduce, or no families.... The AVERAGE alters. Of course add in life expectancy and the average alters again.
@@mikadavies660 Yes it will to some extent.
20% fewer kids in 12 years.
Perhaps people do know the truth but they shut their eyes and hope everything will turn out well in the end. Each nation has the media it deserves.
They have been browbeaten and told they are "racist" if they notice the changes.
Media is controlled by big business and government and is there to cover up for government
That's exactly the same problem in Canada.
GDP growth (0.5%) below net immigration (1%) means the country is getting poorer.
Add to that inflation and rising housing cost and it looks even worse.
lol you think immigration is only 1%
No growth last year we borrowed £120 billion to stand still that’s 7% of gdp 😮so a minis 6.5% drop

One small point Konstantin - I'm a pensioner, part of the "aging population" but I still pay tax.
* ageing . It must be your age. :)
Many pensioners are working . Its expensive to live in this country .

Giving people free money only makes people buy more of what they don't need rather than having when they need what they need. There's a reason people think the roads are paved with gold. Needs met negatively!
A lot of people understood it, but were punished telling the truth. It’s better not to want to know for the majority.
There is no basic crystal clear honesty
British people use to work the fields and pick the fruit. But people got greedy, so imported others to do it for a lot less.
People were brought in who were prepared to work for a lot less than unemployed Brits, and they have kept those wages low 😡😡😡
No the farmers sold all the farm workers houses so the farm workers had to move to the cities to survive.
farmers wont hire the natives
@turokforever007 wrong farmers used to be able to employ seasonal workers as casual labour when needed.
This pay was below average but allowed to be paid in cash, this meant many locals could earn extra money as a lot of mothers and older children would go pick crops and was actually a lifeline for many families.
How do I know this you may ask, well I was one of those children and my peers plus myself were glad of being able to earn some money while gaining experience and independence.
It worked perfectly well before Labour encouraged the switch to importing low paid workers from elsewhere.
It also help the economy to decline as the money locals would earn was kept within the economy unlike those coming in and taking their earnings with them.
Trying to get a job with the way everything is, is near impossible. Everyone says their hiring, but have no intention to hire.
Good on you !
It is about time to say it, loud and clear ! Mass migration does NOT improve standard of living, but the other way around!
When I lived in Auckland, New Zealand, back in the early 90's, I needed 7 years worth of salary to purchase a nice 2 brms house in a decent middle-class suburb, like Mt Albert : Today, if I will do the same job, I will need 25 years worth of salary to buy the same house.....
You've identified two things and insisting that they are related without explaining the connection. The economy is affected by a lot of things.
It don't think it has anything to do with "economy"@@Larvemannenz001 : It is a question of "demand and supply" which, in the case of Auckland, New Zealand, is heavily influenced by migration ( "Kiwis" do not reproduce much ). If economy was so great, then salaries would increase at a similar pace...
Perhaps a solution might be not having to spend over £8 million a day on people who have contributed nothing,not giving billions away in overseas bribes (called overseas aid),or falling over ourselves to virtue signal by giving the Ukraine Nazis billions?
Pensioners deserve a better deal,they have contributed far more to this Country than ANY of the above,and they shouldn't be pilloried as some sort of burden.
💯👏👏

I've seen backsides growing quicker than our economy for years now
The UK treasury honestly believes increasing the population by migration ensures the economy and people grow. UK treasury saw German unification with 88 million population and was concerned we need to move that level.

What was that about "these two parties are no longer serving you", he must be talking about Australia.
Our major parties have forgotten us, secure in the knowledge that people will continue to vote for one or the other party they now plow ahead with their own agenda with no regard for the people they have sworn to serve. Perhaps they think "serve" means the type of service a bull gives.
When you elect raving capitalists to run a socialist country like Australia, you know that there is something Wong.

Australia is as bad as uk. He only spend few weeks on holiday .
It is good that these issues are being discussed in Britain, although it is around the edges of the media, this is the sort of discussion that should be in a political flagship programme like Newsnight on BBC.
The main problem with living in the UK now is that regardless of what you do, you're ALWAYS on minimum wage. Learning, development and professionalism are not encouraged in any way.
The immigration is not difficult to figure out if you know enough about basic economics. So long as the population is increasing, there's a upward economic pressure on rent and a downward pressure on wages. This is what the power of the elites stands on, an ever increasing supply of debt slaves. Without immigration the population of Great Britain would be static or slightly declining.
DEBT and TAXATION SLAVES are required to keep the rich rich and all others under control via USURY
Exactly the same here in the Netherlands!

You have to ask the question who governs this country, overzealous politicians who more interested promoting their over inflated egos whilst trying to look good in front of all their mates at WEF. Don't forget Starmer is on record as saying he actually prefers the politics of Davos to that of Westminster.
Or the MSM,
Either way it certainly looks like that we are being taken for fools, and treated as expendable pawns in their game of chess.
Our politicians are clueless. I dont think for a minute they could rationalise this in the uk . Thank goodness Konstantin is speaking up against this madness
We've been lied to for last 20 years, small growth because of huge migration, but we all so much poorer, Britain is broke and heading to bankruptcy. My daughters have no future in UK, our taxes just pay for peaple smugglers and idle gits sat at home all day. Working peeps are hacked off with it all.
We already have national insurance do you expect people to pay twice
Move to Australia, they don't have national insurance, they just have lots of gold, iron ore and coal etc, to sell to China or to whoever else wants to buy it.
This all stems from the corruption of the inflation figures. They are miscalculated downwards, which shows higher growth and higher growth in real wages.
You'd be fool to think their telling the truth!
We are a service based nation now. We don't make anything of value anymore.
The rot started with Malcom Turnbull! Tony Abbott was one of the best- but we didn’t recognise it! Our present Govt. are total looses.

Red/Blue will continue with managed decline.
Every subsequent generation will have less and less.
Absolutely spot on.
The "ageing population" issue was talked about over 20 years ago. Successive govts promised to input more resources into the NHS to cope. Never happened.
Imagine if the msm, schools and university professors had been stating these facts much earlier on, rather than deflecting people away from all these vital facts. We have been let down by all these and the dodgy pollies.
If UK became the 51st state in the USA it would be the poorest state based on GDP per capita. UK never really recovered from the 2008 financial crash.
Labour were always going to make things worse 🙄
'make things worse'..........yes but at warp speed.
Is he talking about uk or australia
Australia is up, while the UK is down. It is the world turned upside down.
If we are not even permitted to identify the problems the country faces, there is no chance of addressing them. Our enemies both within and without know this very well.
I believe the royal family still has ownership of the commonwealth countries and therefore a very large value/income stream. The fiscal and political power of the elites is immense but it relies on the masses agreeing and accepting their terms. We should be able to bring them in line if we can get organised and put up with the pain for a short while.
Any way they can prop up asset prices .
WHAT'S the COST of ALL immigration? New Zealand seems to do a good job with strict immigration laws and roughly 5 million people. They can train people to do the necessary jobs.
Anyone in the engineering industry in the UK could have told you years ago Konstanin, the decline has been in motion for 20 years or more. Just go out of London and walk the streets of some northern provincial towns and ask people.
This downward trend has been trickling for decades.
Oz is certainly resource rich, but the cost of living over there in 2009 looked to be the same as here when I looked to move; double dollars to pounds; exact same salary once that’s accounted for; many key items of living like houses were also same price. Costs of £20 was $40 but that mirrored the exchange rate; working there would’ve accumulated no extra savings.
Maybe it’s different in other sectors outside construction.
So it came down to a choice of living standards. Preference of location and lifestyle. Or ultimately would the partner be willing to move.
Australia is ,, little India “ you are welcome to come .it’s much worse than 2009.
Euthenasia is a practical issue as well. We live in a philosophically ignorant world.
Immigration actually has been a failure. What alot of countries do is offer work visas and when that time is done you can apply again or go home. Why should someone get citizenship for working at mcdonalds for 5 years? I have no problem with allowing them into work, but it is only after locals wont do the job and they arent hurting society or committing any crimes. As soon as they become a citizen they have all the rights a person has who has lived in that country for 1000 years BUT have the ability to go back to there country of birth instantly if something goes wrong. So that new citizen, has all the incentives to break the laws make as money as possible then go back to there original country.
It affects everything. As small as The traffic jams your stuck on on the motorway every day. What’s that gna be like in a few years with millions more on the road
The world is a big stage they are all in on it
Konstantin is 100% correct
100% wrong in my honest opinion
Maybe if the tax payer decided how the money stolen from them. Chose how it was spent and not an MP. We wouldn't be in a mess.we pay tax because we get a pension and want to be taken care of. And take care of less fortunate people. But they hand it to their mates in contracts and spend it on war and death.
Same thing happening in Australia.
GDP is too much simplified measure.
It includes safety spending like introducing expensive bullet proof glasses for schools or expanding one more lane for interstate highways.
You don’t need to pay 5000dollars for single bullet proof steel door in a country with no mass shooting.
You don’t need to pay billions in a country with efficient high speed train.
If a country's population increases, it pushes GDP up, because with more people, more money will be spent…But individuals within that country might not be getting richer. They may be getting poorer on average, even while GDP goes up.

We want a referendum on Britains continued membership of the ECHR. We should allow the people to decide on this matter through a democratic vote. This referendum should address the following questions:
1. Should Britain remain part of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR)?
2. Should the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol, established by the United Nations, be revised?
3. Should it be a legal obligation for any British government to pursue this revision until it is adopted globally?
It’s crucial to recognise that all Western nations face similar challenges, and in some cases, these issues may be even more severe than those experienced by Britain.
The British media must actively promote this idea, and a parliamentary petition should be established to advance it. Unfortunately, this cannot be done at the moment due to the department being closed while a new committee is being set up.

The freedom of the press may be all well and good, but it must be the truth and be able to be proven it's the truth. Anything that comes from the press I treat with contempt, and I have no reason to think otherwise, Personal opinion.
He speaks the truth
In the UK you can leave school with more kids than qualifications but go onto be deputy PM.
I dont know if this is a good thing or not.
What the fck does that even mean
GDP is growing, GDP per capita is not. The issue is that debt is serviced by GDP incentivising governments that are in debt to focus on that rather than per capita.
Ultimately the UK will need to decide what it wants to give up. You can't have 'triple locked pensions' and spend billions on the NHS when you are having fewer children. There is simply no one to pay for it. Or access to the services they are so used to having on demand.
So whilst people are so adamant that they don't want mass immigration if their government turns around and says fine but we will have to take away some stuff the populance would cry foul. France can't even raise the retirement age for goodness sake.
You cannot have your cake and eat it too. And this is the fault of the populance as well as their government.
And quite frankly people are not having children because they don't want to. Or it is simply not a high enough priority. It's not housing. it's not expense, it is not because they hate themselves, it is because other things are competing for their time which they prefer to do.
@winterskiU
The research regarding the birth rates declining in first world countries is clear. 75% of the population surveyed stated it was down to economics, that being that more than one child was to expensive. It only takes a 20 minute google search to find this out. You are misinformed on this point
Pretty accurate brother. Although I think alot of people are sold a lie when it comes to whats important. Skipping creating a family so you can travel and 'live your best life' might be nice for a few years, but ultimately you will want to lay roots somewhere. Each to their own I suppose
You have sold out by those who convinced 2 vote them.😅
Inflation is going down ….except heating,food and housing…are those things really necessary ? 😉🙃🌍
Everything in Oz is twice as expensive though
