Limited immigration can be beneficial, if properly managed and very tightly controlled. However, it is also a proven risk to public safety, the economy, and public services. Then there’s the threat it poses to our national heritage, culture, socially values and democracy.

This is what we should be aiming for: energy abundance.
Imagine leaving your thermostat on 20° for the whole winter and not worrying about the cost. We want energy abundance.

Sophy Ridge: "20,000 foreign doctors come to the UK every year, but we reject about 16,000 med school applicants, & this is because of money right? It's cheaper for us to import trained doctors from abroad rather than subsidise training in the UK"

ENOUGH. A 15-year-old girl raped by two Afghan males who entered our country illegally. In a park. In broad daylight. and their own lawyers tried to STOP the press from even naming them or revealing their immigration status. How many more British children have to be violated
🚨Breaking News🚨 It can now be confirmed that the “two 17 year old boys from Leamington” in this story are actually Afghan boat migrants. A 15 year old girl was “abducted” away from her friends and raped by one of them, as he called his friend & told him to “come quick” and do

Yes.
Might our lack of investment in key infrastructure (and handing over key chunks of it to private companies) be among the biggest threats we face?

The Government must #ScrapTheCap set on medical students in the UK. The UK must shake off its reliance on foreign doctors, for our NHS and for the healthcare systems of the developing nations they're leaving. Sign our petition here to see change:

Half of trainee British doctors finishing this summer had no job lined up. Yet the NHS is poaching foreign doctors. One in six of Nigeria's are now in the UK. The real scandal isn't pay: it's a broken training pipeline. My column:- https://t.co/3wT78HLfnE

We have record-high NHS waiting lists. We have thousands of young people who want to be doctors. The government caps how many we can train. Then we recruit from countries with doctor shortages. This system is broken. Sign to scrap the cap:
