I guess this is the "FO" part of "FAFO".

Sad it took this long for the UK to figure it out. I fear they're too far gone to recover.

I’m glad they wised up, but the horse has already left the barn.

The one good thing to come out of this is that they were our canary in the coal mine.

....as the country’s left-wing Prime Minister conceded it is now the government’s view that mass migration does not spur economic growth and that large numbers of arrivals weaken society.


Well, duh.

I am not convinced that a Labor government will change course. Just more lip service to boil the frog.

As many have noted, it may well be too late at the point for the UK.

It’s like watching a guy jumping out of a plane, and realizing about five seconds before he hits the ground that he strapped on a regular backpack instead of a parachute.

They were wedded to the globalist dreams of no borders in order for them to have access to the cheapest labor. They do not care what it does to the rest of the country, because they are not impacted by what they actually bring to society at large.

That is why they rode that payday for so long, as the globalists greased their lives with lots of money.

Since Europeans are so much smarter than everyone else in the world why did it take so long to figure out something so simple?

This isn’t a concession.

It’s a modified limited hangout meant to buy time and appease the masses while borders are left wide open.

I know this isn't exactly on-theme here for the thread, but I just have to finally say it ...

Every time I see the PM, I think "That's Fred Barnes, from the old McLaughlin Group discussion show."

Confirmation that, to be a liberal, one must have an IQ below 12, but even if they’re that dumb, reality will eventually come knocking between the eyes.

It is so fascinating that even Angela Merkel, when Kanzlerin for Germany, managed to figure this out --- in 2010.

Merkel says German multicultural society has failed BBC, 17 October 2010.
The British political elite are just so slow on the uptake....

Perhaps someone who understands the British monarchy can enlighten me:

Why would the Crown allow this to take place? Could they not have put a stop to this?

I guess this is the “FO” part of “FAFO”.

That’s the first time I have seen the ‘FO’ put like that, but it’s telling. They made a decision to produce mass migration, believing the ‘fake science’, that it would bring increased productivity and economy. The truth is far more sinister, it brings more negatives for society and increases the dependency of government. It’s a disaster, and unfortunately the native citizens of Great Britain will be forced to deal with those ‘consequences’ for generations.

“a left-leaning country can only take one of two courses: dismantle its borders or dismantle its welfare state. This is the view taken by left-wing populist Sahra Wagenknecht in Germany and, as stated, by Danish left-progressive Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. “

LOL. Milton Friedman said exactly this probably 50 years ago.

We’ve been hearing UK pols say the same thing all the way back to Margaret Thatcher and even before that.

Has anything been done about it during that time?

NO. And, 3rd world “refugees” continue to pour in:

“In the year ending December 2024, more than 108,130 people claimed asylum in the UK, marking the highest number since records began in 1979. This represents an 18% increase compared to 2023 and is nearly double the number in 2021.”

And now with millions of both Hindus and Muslims in Britain, what do you think they are going to do now that India and Pakistan are at war?
