#7  Don't worry, given the numbers of "migrants" you've taken in, that number should be self-sustaining now. See you again in 50 years to see how you feel about all of this.

#6  Rents drop and wages rise when populations shrink...

i.e. the economy per head grows.

#5  Shrinking populations require less government. We can't have that, now can we ?

#4  off the pile o' blasphemy...

'Twas awful unfriendly, old sod,
To use this poor bod as a rod,
To stick out Your finger
And sling me a zinger...
I wonder if God's not a Prod.

#3  Don't worry, they'll fit right in. Some places, anyway...

Since all of the squares became crescents,
Jibril's an enhanced incandescence,
And Christopher Wren's
Little mosque in the Fens,
When rebuilt, will be gilt with our presents.

#2  Wait till the migrants start "terraforming" the UK to fit their desires....no more Trafalger square...no more Big Ben...no more Tower Bridge...all the walls come tumbling down.

#1  Just think all that subsidised migration accrues to land holders via increased rents.

Migration. You pay, the establishment gain.
