start absolutely start today with an absolutely shocking , although it shocking story, although it should take very huge amount should take a very huge amount to shocked anything to be shocked by anything immigration related in this country but net country at the moment. but net migration uk this year migration to the uk this year could be 1 million. that is pretty much double last year's figures and it makes an absolute mockery of the claim that leaving the european union would give us back control of our borders . more than 45,000 borders. more than 45,000 migrants arrived on small boats in 2022, more than 6800 have already crossed the channel. this year. but that is just a tiny fraction of the total number of people who are settling in the uk each year. and for me, there are some pretty pertinent questions here. okay when is enough enough ? who okay when is enough enough? who are all of these people? where are all of these people? where are they coming from? where are they to what jobs they going to live? what jobs are going to do? when i saw are they going to do? when i saw this figure is rumoured this figure that is rumoured that going around that we're going to have around a million people within the a million people net within the next i was next year, initially, i was quite happy because i assumed great, nhs will be great, our nhs will be well staffed, won't short of staffed, we won't be short of doctors, won't be short doctors, we won't be short of anyone work our public anyone to work in our public sector. but i think all know

who we got a sneaky previous glimpse ago. glimpse of there moments ago. thank much for coming thank you very much for coming on the show. now, i am keen to just play the forward on just play the tape forward on this. i think we can forget, just play the tape forward on this. about( we can forget, just play the tape forward on this. about what:an forget, just play the tape forward on this. about what happens:, just play the tape forward on this. about what happens if we chat about what happens if we reduce the tens of reduce it to the tens of thousands. let's just assume that's going to happen. so that's not going to happen. so if at the rate that if we continue at the rate that we're for want of a we're going now, for want of a better what is britain better phrase, what is britain going to look like in 20, 30, 40 years time? well, the two places you an— years time? well, the two places you kook— years time? well, the two places you iook io— years time? well, the two places you can look to see— «prim; t 7 well, the two places you can look to see what britain wiri— you can look to see what britain viii-iike— you can look to see what britain viii-iike is— you can look to see what britain will-like is in— you can look to see what britain will-like is in our- you can look to see what britain will like is in our big will look like is in our big siiies— will look like is in our big cities today,— will look like is in our big cities today, and particularly the cities today, and particularly ine—iiversei the more ethnically diverse paris— the more ethnically diverse pans-skies- the more ethnically diverse parts-cities and. parts of their cities and our primary— parts of their cities and our primary-winn- parts of their cities and our primary which will parts of their cities and our- primary -which will roll primary schools, which will roll iorwari— primary schools, which will roll iorwari-ine— primary schools, which will roll forward the population of forward into the population of the forward into the population of we zo— forward into the population of ine 20. oo— forward into the population of ine 20. so io— forward into the population of the 20, 30 to 2040. t the 20, 30 to 2040. so it's oiviousiy— the 20, 30 to 2040. so it's obviously a britain in which the element that describes itself in censuses as white british continues to decline, as it has been declining very sharply since the 1990s. okay. and what since the 19905. okay. and what kind— since the 19905. okay. and what kind oi— since the 19905. okay. and what kind oi rare — since the 19905. okay. and what kind of rate of— since the 19905. okay. and what kind of rate of decline- iii: ”0 okay. and what kind of rate of decline are we iooking— kind of rate of decline are we iooking ai— kind of rate of decline are we looking at and— kind of rate of decline are we looking at and what kind of rate of acceleration— looking at and what kind of rate of acceleration are— looking at and what kind of rate of acceleration are we looking for of acceleration are we looking ior ai— of acceleration are we looking ior ai now— of acceleration are we looking for at now? well,— of acceleration are we looking for at now? well, i suppose what wouii— for at now? well, i suppose what wouii you— for at now? well, i suppose what wouio you say— for at now? well, i suppose what would you say people demographically from where is it?

3:20 pm
about now going to be massively outbred. i about now going to be massively outbred . i don't think it's a outbred. i don't think it's a guesiion— outbred. i don't think it's a guesrion oi— : i don't think it's a question of outbreeding i think this question of outbreeding i think we is— question of outbreeding i think we is a— question of outbreeding i think we is a gear— question of outbreeding i think this is a great misunderstanding . wnen— this is a great misunderstanding . wnan peopie— this is a great misunderstanding . when people come- this is a great misunderstanding . when people come to- this is a great misunderstanding . when people come to this country as when they come to america, they often come from countries with higher fertility rates fertility rates and their fertility converges . so if you look at converges. so if you look at hindus and sikhs in britain today, example, the best today, for example, the best data we have suggests that their fertility than fertility rate is no higher than the rest of us. but people from muslim countries are generally coming from countries with a higher fertility rate. so higher in pakistan, for example, than in pakistan, for example, than in india. but their fertility rates have fallen enormously. so the ethnic change, which is happening, although it's partly dnven happening, although it's partly driven by the fact they're younger population, it's younger population, asians, it's not to be driven by not really going to be driven by their fertility rate. their higher fertility rate. it's really going to be driven by ongoing immigration and by this ongoing immigration and the ongoing immigration is dnven the ongoing immigration is driven by the fact that all of us, pretty much the whole country, regardless of region, regardless of ethnicity and almost regardless of religion , almost regardless of religion, is having a fertility rate which is having a fertility rate which is significantly below replacement. now for some people
3:21 pm
out there who really do care about the demographic demographics of their country and feel as though that that there is something that's worth preserving about traditional british culture , there may well british culture, there may well also be a concern that a tipping point has already been reached, has it? i don't believe in tipping points. i think there are a number of things. first of all, you have the fact that people integrate, people become british. i mean, i cite myself with two immigrant parents feeling 100% british, and there are us out there. are awful lot of us out there. so that process on. i don't so that process goes on. i don't think a magic point think there's a magic point where tipping point occurs , where a tipping point occurs, but i think if we don't turn around the fertility issue now or in 20 years time , we're still or in 20 years time, we're still going to be having this great suck of requirement for immigration. the sucking noise from industries short of people , all because when i started in the workplace back in the 80s, a lot more people in their 20s were coming into the workforce than were leaving it. and now
3:22 pm
people of my age, i was born in 64. that was the peak of the baby a lot of of my baby boom. a lot of people of my age beginning to leave age are beginning to leave the workforce more and more of them will in next 5 or 6 will leave it in the next 5 or 6 years. ten years. and we have this drop off in fertility in the 70s until get the 70s now until we get a pickup in the fertility rate, this requirement for immigration, you do immigration, whatever you do with boat, however with a small boat, however important whatever important that is, whatever you do with family reunions or however count however you choose to count students and students out, however you choose to count stu(fundamental;tudents out, however you choose to count stmfundamental issue, :s out, however you choose to count stmfundamental issue, the it, the fundamental issue, the biggest issue by far the need biggest issue by far is the need for our sluggish for labour. even in our sluggish sluggishly economy and sluggishly growing economy and the lack of fertility 20 years ago and the shortage of young people the workforce. people entering the workforce. look, much. as look, thank you very much. as i'm sure you can tell, i could iaik— i'm sure you can tell, i could iaik io— i'm sure you can tell, i could iaik io you— i'm sure you can tell, i could talk to you all— i'm sure you can tell, i could talk to you all day about this, our— talk to you all day about this, iui in— talk to you all day about this, iui in being— talk to you all day about this, but i'm being shouted out now. so but i'm being shouted out now. so inank— but i'm being shouted out now. so inank you.— but i'm being shouted out now. so thank you. that— but i'm being shouted out now. so thank you. that is demographer paul so thank you. that is— demographer.paul moreland. demographer dr. paul moreland. rasoinaiing— demographer dr. paul moreland. fascinating—we- demographer dr. paul moreland. fascinating we will demographer dr. paul moreland. fasreturning we will demographer dr. paul moreland. fasreturning to we will demographer dr. paul moreland. fasreturning to this we will demographer dr. paul moreland. fasreturning to this issuee will be returning to this issue inrougnoui— be returning to this issue. throughout—the throughout the course of the snow— throughout the course of the show because _ throughout the course of the show because - as- throughout the course of the show because as i can show because as far as i can reki— show because as far as i can gen, inis— show because as far as i can gen, we is— show because as far as i can tell, this is absolutely massive.-me,| tell, this is absolutely- massive.-me, anyway, massive. and for me, anyway, seriainiy— massive. and for me, anyway, seriainiy one— massive. and for me, anyway, certainly one of— massive. and for me, anyway, certainly one of the biggest issues facing— certainly one of the biggest issues facing our country certainly one of the biggest issues féitng our country certainly one of the biggest issues féit really country certainly one of the biggest issues féit really does try our because it really does shape our souniry—novingi country, doesn't it? but moving on, country, doesn't it? but moving iniiiip— country, doesn't it? but moving on, phillip schofield is reporiei— on, phillip schofield is reported to—

[15 . c15 getting in touch. gb views at gb news .uk. if you are just joining us, this is that shocking figure that is set to be hitting britain. 1 million people with a migration people with a net migration figure million people. do figure of 1 million people. do you the of you remember the tens of thousands? that ladies and thousands? yeah. that ladies and gents, a distant memory. gents, is a distant memory. 1 million people set the year million people set for the year ahead. that's of ahead. that's on top of potentially around 700 odd thousand year before thousand in the year before that, 500,000 the before that, 500,000 the year before that. and those are, let's be honest now, just the people that we know about. and i can't help but wonder, okay, who are all of these people? where are they coming from? what jobs have they got and where are they going to live? and crucially as well, what you this is going what do you think this is going to for demographics to do for the demographics of britain and if britain going forward? and if you do care about that, tell me why you care about that. because a snarling individuals a lot of snarling individuals will shouldn't will say you shouldn't care about whether or not your area
3:37 pm
remains , let's say majority remains, let's say majority white british. you shouldn't really care about that. and if you do care about that, that makes you a racist. but is there not something about british culture that's worth preserving 7 culture that's worth preserving ? there not something maybe ? is there not something maybe about community that you about the community that you knew grew up in knew and loved and grew up in that preserving ? maybe that is worth preserving? maybe you don't care . you just genuinely don't care. if me know why. gb if not, let me know why. gb views a gb news .uk. but there has to be a link between the amount of younger people who are struggling to get on the housing ladden struggling to get on the housing ladder. amount of people who ladder. the amount of people who are to and the are struggling to rent and the amount that it is costing our nhs. waiting for our nhs. the waiting times for our nhs. the waiting times for our nhs some issues going on nhs. some of the issues going on in overcrowded thing of in certain overcrowded thing of schools care etcetera schools and child care etcetera , there has to be a link between that and amount of people that and the amount of people who coming every single year who are coming every single year andifs who are coming every single year and it's the best that we can do to boost our economic to try to boost our economic growth allow a million people growth to allow a million people in every single year. that's net. and again, i am deeply sceptical of some of the reasons behind this. people go, well, look, it's students, isn't look, it's just students, isn't it? not just students
3:38 pm
it? well, it's not just students . have about half a . even if we have about half a million students every single yean million students every single year, now a lot of year, we are seeing now a lot of them bringing not just one, not just two, but sometimes 3 or 4 quotes and quotes, dependence with an absolute with them. that is an absolute nonsense. how on earth can you be responsible anybody be responsible for anybody else? really? really. the vast majority of the time when you're at and can i also at university? and can i also just say when we have people on this show a lot of the time who say poor people coming say these poor people coming over the only over the channel, it's the only way can get to britain way that they can get to britain because safe and because there are no safe and legal routes to this country. and have a hard time and they have such a hard time getting visa. click albie. it getting a visa. click albie. it is not hard to get a visa to come and live in britain and when they're talking about we need these people to fill the labour shortages and we need them to fill the labour gaps. what labour and labour what labour gaps and labour shortages really talking shortages are we really talking about here? because we keep hearing, about our nhs hearing, don't we, about our nhs being well if we being understaffed? well if we were having a net migration of a million people, i personally would to would expect to breathe a massive relief. we massive sigh of relief. we shouldn't be short doctors, shouldn't be short of doctors, we shouldn't of nurses, shouldn't be short of doctors, we shouldn't short of nurses, shouldn't be short of doctors, we shouldn't short of anyone we shouldn't be short of anyone to our vital public sector
3:39 pm
to fill our vital public sector situations. but what's going to happen time year or happen this time next year or this year after, we this time the year after, we will still be having a conversation about how many million need bring million people we need to bring into country every single into our country every single year to these labour year to fill these labour shortages. so where are they working and where are they all living? a load of living? i've got a load of emails in on this gb views of gbnews.uk. net migration hits gbnews.uk. if net migration hits 1 is totally 1 million, that is totally irresponsible dangerous. irresponsible and dangerous. as mick rightly raised mick patrick, you rightly raised concerns culture and concerns about our culture and our cultural traditions culturally, increasingly culturally, i feel increasingly alienated, by alienated, exacerbated by arrogant who seem to arrogant woke elites who seem to feel that they have free licence to denigrate white british people and british culture. and this it . i people and british culture. and this it. i can't help this is part of it. i can't help but whether or not you but wonder whether or not you feel a little secretive feel a little bit secretive about the changes that you see going on around you and you don't really want to raise it because a lot of people would immediately hit back when they 90, immediately hit back when they go, about the go, why do you care about the fact your area is now 50% fact that your area is now 50% less white it's a difficult less white and it's a difficult question answer, isn't it? question to answer, isn't it? because you feel as though you shouldn't really care about people's colour. of people's skin colour. and of course you shouldn't. but is there not something deep seated
3:40 pm
and cultural on? there there not something deep seated arjust ltural on? there there not something deep seated arjust ajral on? there there not something deep seated arjust a natural, on? there there not something deep seated arjust a natural, maybe there is just a natural, maybe a natural fear of rapid change without us being able to completely account for all of that. i just have someone on that. and i just have someone on who demographer earlier on who is a demographer earlier on and was saying that a lot of and he was saying that a lot of this by 2050, the majority of primary schools britain will primary schools in britain will be minority white. and this will mean, of course, that britain will have a very, very , very will have a very, very, very different society , different different society, different culture, and potentially as well, different norms shall we say, in values than it does have right now. and do you not have a right now. and do you not have a right to be concerned about all of that? you can see the email address there. i'm going to be returning to this throughout the course of the show. britain is broken facts. there's name broken facts. there's no name on this infrastructure is this one. our infrastructure is unable with the numbers unable to cope with the numbers that we cannot that we have now. we cannot build enough homes to cater for the people coming here. our hospitals schools hospitals and schools and doctors cope. welfare hospitals and schools and doctiss cope. welfare hospitals and schools and doctis growingope. welfare hospitals and schools and doctis growing ate. welfare hospitals and schools and doctis growing at an welfare bill is growing at an astronomical single astronomical rate every single yeah astronomical rate every single year. there's no name on that one. but there go. this ties one. but there you go. this ties into doesn't and into it all, doesn't it? and i just buy all the excuses just don't buy all the excuses for these numbers about, oh,
3:41 pm
it's students it's it's all students or it's ukrainian or it's ukrainian refugees or it's refugees afghanistan i'm refugees from afghanistan. i'm sorry, can't be and sorry, but it can't be and therefore be that therefore it cannot be that difficult to get a visa to this country and therefore, you cannot singularly on cannot singularly need to get on a dinghy come over the a dinghy and come over the channelin a dinghy and come over the channel in order to get here, especially when look at especially when you look at increased people increased rates of people arriving like india. arriving from places like india. and also see you also and then you also see you also see as that second see as well that the second highest people highest proportion of people coming channel the last coming over the channel the last time are indeed from time i checked, are indeed from india. so, again, there is not the is there make an the need is there to make an illegal journey. do you feel illegal journey. how do you feel about all of this going forward, though? because figures though? because those figures were be down in the were supposed to be down in the tens of thousands and clearly were supposed to be down in the tens theyiousands and clearly were supposed to be down in the tens they are ands and clearly were supposed to be down in the tens they are not. and clearly were supposed to be down in the tens they are not. look, learly were supposed to be down in the tens they are not. look, there's now they are not. look, there's loads more coming your way here. absolutely loads . and i'm going absolutely loads. and i'm going to be giving i'm going to be giving you more on all of this very, very shortly. but i want your views as well. gb views at gb news .uk . and yeah, a load of gb news .uk. and yeah, a load of people here now saying that around 75% of schoolchildren in their particular area are non—white . again, why does that non—white. again, why does that particularly bother you? i suppose, but how's this for an
3:42 pm

3:51 pm
on gb news, the people's. channel wow . channel- wow . there we snannei— wow . there we go. channel wow . there we go. so how about wow. there we go. so how about this for a story? hey, it turns out that the archbishop of canterbury, justin welby, isn't as innocent as you might think. so on the same day that he criticised the government's migration policy in house of migration policy in the house of lords, welby was fined £510 for and by the way, prepare for the crime of the century here, ladies and gentlemen, driving at 25 miles an hour in a 20 mile an hour zone. i mean, this is the
3:52 pm
classic archbishop way to get yourself done, isn't it? but there we go. it seems the archbishop has a little bit of a need speed . okay. and who'd need for speed. okay. and who'd have thought, though? who'd have thought that justin welby was indeed a boy racer? and this guy is a complete you know, he tries to lecture us all, doesn't he? lecturer is all about morality in this world and how we all need to be doing the right thing . and meanwhile he's around there it in his bishop mobile. the dizzying heights of 25 miles an hour in a 20 zone, having to pay an hour in a 20 zone, having to pay fines for it all. i mean, it's unbelievable . it's it's unbelievable. it's unbelievable. but it did, of course , get thinking of course, get me thinking of a possible few different careers for him. right. so here he is on the formula one track. there he is a stirling moss. and i think we can just see him there, can't we? yes. fantastic rousing it around the corners and as well, who else have we got here? oh, there we go. that's him there. feeling need for speed, feeling the need for speed, welby will be appearing in the new top gun film. so there we
3:53 pm
are. and i believe we've got one more there. yeah that's right. that's right. so what's actually happening is in a bizarre move , happening is in a bizarre move, justin going to be in justin welby is going to be in the next speed film as keanu reeves and reeves is now reeves and keanu reeves is now our archbishop, believe it or not. so apparently, yeah, there was bit of turnaround was a little bit of a turnaround there, but there you go. so just thought i'd bring that thought i'd bring you that story the his the next time he takes to his feet in the lords and lectures us all on morality and virtue signalling, etcetera, just remember that guy remember that that guy is not afraid miles hour in afraid to do 25 miles an hour in afraid to do 25 miles an hour in a zone anyway. love it or a 20 zone anyway. love it or hate it, you can't escape eurovision even on news. and eurovision even on gb news. and there's just a day to go until there's just a day to go until the big event takes place in liverpool. is of course liverpool. the uk is of course hosting eurovision because last year's winners , ukraine can't year's winners, ukraine can't stage . there we go. tickets stage it. there we go. tickets for tomorrow night sold out in just 36 minutes. let's go now to our northwest reporter and unofficial eurovision correspondent . it's sophie correspondent. it's sophie reaper sophie, are you getting in the eurovision spirit ? i in the eurovision spirit? i absolutely am, patrick. and i

away this is getting a g, oh, of my neck. i sort of shrinking away this is getting a bityh, gosh, this is getting a bit hairy. and many respects it hairy. and in many respects it was frightening. and when was quite frightening. and when ithen was quite frightening. and when i then left the studio, i just wanted get out as quickly as wanted to get out as quickly as possible . he then sort of came possible. he then sort of came storming up behind me and production staff. i won't name names about who came to my assistance, but were quite quick to run up the stairs out of the gallery, grabbed me, whisk me away for a cup of tea and profusely apologise. and they were pretty horrified, actually, by his behaviour. and yet somehow , of— by his behaviour. and yet somehow , of course,- 2“ 2 and yet somehow , of course, in the mad somehow, of course, in the mad worri— somehow, of course, in the mad worii oi— somehow, of course, in the mad world of twitter,— somehow, of course, in the mad world of twitter, where this has gone — world of twitter, where this has gone wrai— world of twitter, where this has gone virai: ii— world of twitter, where this has gone viral, it seems to be a iooiian— gone viral, it seems to be a football match _ gone viral, it seems to be a football match that, you know, i nign— football match that, you know, i nigni ie— football match that, you know, i nigni be wrong — football match that, you know, i might be wrong. 2; 32. might be wrong. he's got to be right. and whole brexit right. and the whole brexit debate reopened. but there debate has reopened. but there are good ways to have debates and there are bad ways to have debates. and for a who debates. and for a man who claims to be, you know, a communications director , he communications director, he doesn't seem to know very well how to communicate . i mean, he how to communicate. i mean, he seems to how to communicate. i mean, he io nave— how to communicate. i mean, he seems to have one— how to communicate. i mean, he seems to have one pretty- 2“ i mean, he seems to have one pretty obvious iaeiie— seems to have one pretty obvious iaeiie ior— seems to have one pretty obvious tactic for communication, which is ani— tactic for communication, which is and aiways— tactic for communication, which is and always has— tactic for communication, which is and always has been just to ianiiy— is and always has been just to iaiiy peopie. — is and always has been just to bully people. would you agree wiin— bully people. would you agree wiin nai— bully people. would you agree wiin inai i — bully people. would you agree
4:52 pm
with that .7 yeah.— bully people. would you agree with that 7 yeah. i- bully people. would you agree with that ? 24222“ 2“ with that? yeah. i mean, bullying is a strong word, but it did seem like quite bullying behaviour. and of course, this is the who basically came up is the man who basically came up with the mantra that a spin doctors job was invent the doctors job was to invent the truth . i mean, this the part of truth. i mean, this the part of this living in a political post—truth era was very much an era that campbell himself designed and kicked off. and you know what's fascinating during that debate, what i was trying to say quite accurately, actually, was that it was all about these 4000 regulations that the government had found down the back of the sofa. and i was pointing out that 260,000 regulations exist in uk statute and he was trying to tell me that all of those regulations were voted on and debated by mps and that, you know, we had full sovereignty, which is just not even factually true . the eu even factually true. the eu legislation actually cannot be amended and as a member of the european union, we had to just have it added to our statute books. and he knows that full well. this is not even in question. i mean, if we could have decided we didn't want to follow this or
4:53 pm
follow this rule or that regulation, there be no regulation, there would be no point brexit debate point having a brexit debate right. but he just of went right. but he just sort of went into meltdown and took to shouting actually shouting instead of actually discussing and well, discussing the issues. and well, it ended up in near pandemonium. do you think he should apologise to you? i think he probably snoaii— to you? i think he probably snoaii . — to you? i think he probably snoaii . i— to you? i think he probably should . i mean,- «2-7 i think he probably should. 27 i think he probably should . 2“ 2 2 should. i mean, what he did, i thought to myself last night when i went to bed, i was like, he's going to wake up in the morning and think this morning and think perhaps this wasn't the best way to conduct an interview. and a bit an interview. and feel a bit bad. indeed, did. and what he bad. indeed, he did. and what he did was apologise victoria did was apologise to victoria derbyshire at same derbyshire and then at the same time spend of the time seems to spend most of the night me and decided he night googling me and decided he wanted on me and wanted to double down on me and stir some sort of hashtag ipp stir up some sort of hashtag ipp twitter so he clearly twitter pylon. so he clearly doesn't or feel any doesn't show or feel any remorse. think an remorse. so i don't think an apology worth much, but it's apology is worth much, but it's interesting sort strain , interesting the sort of strain, cult like behaviour of these people who immediately lean towards sort of drumming up a big head of steam and getting as many people as possible to join in the ranting and raving. it's like playground really, isn't it? you know? oh, the group of friends hate you. we're all
4:54 pm
friends now hate you. we're all going you. it's yeah, going to pick on you. it's yeah, it's sort like childish it's sort of like childish bullying behaviour. but this all too often appears— bullying behaviour. but this all too often appears to— “g but this all too often appears to come from the too often appears to come from ine sane— too often appears to come from ine groan— too often appears to come from the same group of— too often appears to come from the same group of people who sari— the same group of people who call themselves— the same group of people who call themselves all really nice ani— call themselves all really nice and tolerant— call themselves all really nice and tolerant and— call themselves all really nice and tolerant and lovely and iiaiiy— and tolerant and lovely and iiaiiy ani— and tolerant and lovely and fluffy and decent individuals. ani— fluffy and decent individuals. one i— fluffy and decent individuals. one i insi— fluffy and decent individuals. and i just wonder whether not and i just wonder whether or not you and i just wonder whether or not yon—were- and i just wonder whether or not yon—were is- and i just wonder whether or not| you—there is some you feel as though there is some kind— you feel as though there is some ninilreaiiy— you feel as though there is some kind-really weird— you feel as though there is some kind really weird element of kind of really weird element of gsyenoiogy— kind of really weird element of psychology which— kind of really weird element of psychology which goes , if you psychology which goes, if you are a prominent— psychology which goes, if you are a prominent brexiteer such as yowseii— are a prominent brexiteer such as yoarseii ani— are a prominent brexiteer such as yourself and if— are a prominent brexiteer such as yourself and if you are still iigniing— as yourself and if you are still iigniing ine— as yourself and if you are still fighting the eurosceptic cause inn— fighting the eurosceptic cause inai ii-s— fighting the eurosceptic cause inai ii-s okay— fighting the eurosceptic cause that it's okay to— fighting the eurosceptic cause that it's okay to be mean to you . war,— that it's okay to be mean to you . nen. iiis— that it's okay to be mean to you . well, this is— that it's okay to be mean to you . well, this is why— that it's okay to be mean to you . well, this is why they- that it's okay to be mean to you . well, this is why they put all the emojis in their twitter handle and support everything thatis handle and support everything that is the latest, you know, luxury ideology because they do it to make themselves feel self—righteous and morally superior. and actually they use it as a disguise and a means by which to essentially be nasty to people that they don't agree with. and margaret thatcher once called socialism the politics of envy. i actually think it's the politics of people who like to bully, who for some reason feel that done done them that life's done them, done them bad , or, you know, a misjustice

friends of the commonwealth. sir neii—very- friends of the commonwealth. sir neii—very naen.| neil, thank you very, very much. rnese— neil, thank you very, very much. these-numbers- neil, thank you very, very much. these - numbers are i these predicted numbers are nassiveiy—inei massively concerning for the wnoie—inail massively concerning for the. whole—that i've whole host of reasons that i've iasi— whole host of reasons that i've iasi oaiiinei— whole host of reasons that i've just outlined right— whole host of reasons that i've just outlined right there. what on eann— just outlined right there. what on earin is— just outlined right there. what on earth is going— just outlined right there. what on earth is going . on it's on earth is going. on it's a goon— on earth is going. on it's a good question. - on earth is going. on it's a good question. . good question. i think it's just it it's clear to see the immigration is clearly not being controlled in any fit capacity . controlled in any fit capacity. it's worrying because you talked about it there. the strain this is having on our nhs, on schools , we're already seeing a housing crisis in some ways where there's a massive demand to keep building and building houses across the whole the whole country, and this is just going to continue to. it seems as if almost on every bit of grass, we're going to have to keep building to accommodate building houses to accommodate people the migration goes up, people as the migration goes up, our nhs trying to get a gp appointment is just going to get even worse . something has to even worse. something has to change and something has to change and something has to change because change quite radically because these becoming these numbers are becoming astronomical . we need these astronomical. we need these people to fill labour shortages is what labour shortages are
5:12 pm
these people filling? i don't understand it. there's- �*" -- “272 i don't understand it. there's no way inai— understand it. there's no way inai we— understand it. there's no way inai we need— understand it. there's no way that we need 1— understand it. there's no way that we need 1 million people every— that we need 1 million people every singie— that we need 1 million people every single year— that we need 1 million people every single year to fill labour gaps— every single year to fill labour gaps inai— every single year to fill labour gaps inai weve— every single year to fill labour gaps that we've got in this ooaniry— gaps that we've got in this eoaniry. kni— gaps that we've got in this country. and i— gaps that we've got in this country. and i also refuse to neiieve— country. and i also refuse to believe that— country. and i also refuse to believe that these people are away— believe that these people are actually contributing , all of actually contributing, all of inen — actually contributing, all of them contributing massively to our economy. surely there is a barren— our economy. surely there is a narien nere— our economy. surely there is a burden here on— our economy. surely there is a burden here on the ordinary nriiisn— burden here on the ordinary british citizen?— burden here on the ordinary british citizen? no definitely . british citizen? no definitely. kna— british citizen? no definitely. one i— british citizen? no definitely. one i inink— british citizen? no definitely. and i think that's— british citizen? no definitely. and i think that's the- british citizen? no definitely. and i think that's the concern. i think no one would have a problem when you have labour shortages, genuine labour shortages, genuine labour shortages and maybe specific fields where need to get fields where we need to get people you know, highly people from. you know, highly specialised roles within this country. you're having country. but when you're having these numbers and we're these sort of numbers and we're seeing as seeing unemployment as high as it is , there clearly isn't a it is, there clearly isn't a labour shortage of people that can go out and work this can go out and work in this country and there's a good example of how we're seeing, you know, people often complain about the lack of money in terms of the pay that people get paid. this is a massive reason why we see continue to not see job salaries continue to not increase as much as they should because a lot of these migrants
5:13 pm
that come in more than happy that come in are more than happy to to paid a very small to to be be paid a very small amount of the wage. and this is another contributing factor why people in some cases in people are paid in some cases in this country so poorly. and yeah, the of there's yeah, to the point of there's not in terms of the labour shortage, i think another really important factor when it comes to this is how these people are coming into the country and not all of them are contributing towards society in the most possible way. i'm sure some are, but when you're having this number coming you number of people coming in, you cannot 1 million people cannot say 1 million people coming country are all coming into this country are all contributing society. the contributing to society. the burden of bringing that many people in a space of people in, in a short space of time is massive. and i think something that our government really has to look at. i just feel really, really sorry for a lot of people who feel as though the area where they grew up is changing dramatically and rather quickly around them. and i feel sorry for quickly around them. and i feel sorry ior inen— quickly around them. and i feel sorry for them because- quickly around them. and i feel sorry for them because i- r2- 2.2-r 2 and i feel sorry for them because i think it's sorry for them because i think ii-s oiien— sorry for them because i think it's often quite— sorry for them because i think it's often quite hard to articulate— it's often quite hard to articulate the way that you feel wiinoai— articulate the way that you feel without coming _ articulate the way that you feel without coming across as maybe

adapt to the society that they're in. but when you're doing at that large scale, it is so hard to adapt when you're looking at those numbers . and looking at those numbers. and what seems to be happening on our side is we're almost adapting to a lot of these immigrants and a lot of these way living. think these way of living. and i think these figures are just so uncontrolled . and it's clear to see that something the government . and it's clear to see that sondoing] the government . and it's clear to see that sondoing isn't the government . and it's clear to see that son doing isn't working.ernment . and it's clear to see that son doing isn't working. and ent are doing isn't working. and that's areas are that's why lots of areas are becoming unrecognised from when people and they will people grew up and they will continue this isn't going continue to. this isn't going to stop time soon. and i feel stop any time soon. and i feel sorry for people who, you know , sorry for people who, you know, grew an area, worked hard, grew up in an area, worked hard, had good wage, and now they're had a good wage, and now they're living they living in an area that they don't not don't recognise. that's not their anymore. and that's, their area anymore. and that's, i think, worrying. think i think, very worrying. i think it is. and you've touched on a iew— it is. and you've touched on a few different— it is. and you've touched on a few different points— . and you've touched on a few different points there. i ine— few different points there. i mean, the housing crisis is the onvioas— mean, the housing crisis is the onvioas one— mean, the housing crisis is the obvious one. access to public services.— obvious one. access to public services. nai— obvious one. access to public services. but again, we're told inai— services. but again, we're told inai inere-s— services. but again, we're told that there's this— services. but again, we're told that there's this massive snoriage— that there's this massive shortage .that- that there's this massive shortage that we can't get shortage and that we can't get it. shortage and that we can't get in .we-re— shortage and that we can't get in .we-e iore— shortage and that we can't get it.-we're told to- shortage and that we can't get it. we're told to ignore all it. and we're told to ignore all ine—growinl it. and we're told to ignore allj ine—gowin as the rapid population growth as being— the rapid population growth as neing—iaeior- being any kind of factor whatsoever— being any kind of factor whatsoever .— being any kind of factor whatsoever . people who whatsoever. people who were iesneraie — whatsoever. people who were desperate _ nhs i whatsoever. people who were. desperate _ nhs out, desperate to sort the nhs out, peopie— desperate to sort the nhs out, peopie-are— desperate to sort the nhs out, people are desperate people who are desperate to get

5:17 pm
massive concern. people come to this country. the reason why people are so desperate to come to country and move here is to this country and move here is because incredible because of our incredible values, our history, our integrity , our values on integrity, our values on democracy and all these amazing things . and if we're not things. and if we're not careful, we will very quickly those will diminish . and those things will diminish. and they already are. and i think what's concerning is i just don't think people are understanding the magnitude of when we're talking about numbers like this, school classes will continue to get bigger. your gp appointments will take longer. we'll much more of a strain we'll have much more of a strain on our economy, more houses will be built. that's the reality. and can try and play around and we can try and play around with yes, they with it and say, yes, they contribute with their tax revenues, which very revenues, which is all very correct. but those 4 or 5 things i mentioned that are going to continue to happen and there's no point in us sugar coating around that's what's going around it. that's what's going to until we take this to happen until we take this seriously. they are. and i reany— seriously. they are. and i really-think— seriously. they are. and i. really-think-that seriously. they are. and i- really-think-that if really do think as well that if oniy— really do think as well that if our only solution _ really do think as well that if our only solution to balancing the-economically- our only solution to balancing the economically is to try the books economically is to try to the books economically is to try io-oar— the books economically is to try to-our arms around. to just throw our arms around ine— to just throw our arms around ine-ani— to just throw our arms around ine-ani go,— to just throw our arms around the and go, please, for the world and go, please, for ine— the world and go, please, for ine nove— the world and go, please, for ine iove oi—
