So the Greens are “divisive”???

How?

It’s the far-right that divides us into Brits & Foreigners, Gay & Straight, Cis & Trans, Employed & Scrounger, etc.

Want proof?

Illegal immigrants make up 0.9% of our population, yet Farage blames them for 100% of our problems while 90% of the MSM cheers him on.

So "proof" to you is a personal comment where you made up the stats based on what you feel?

@SumKindaMunster Illegal immigrants make up 0.9% of our population. Farage and Reform UK blame them for everything (100%).

There are 12 daily newspapers in the UK. 10 of them are either right-wing or far-right (not that they would dream of admitting it.) And they are all divisive to greater or lesser extents. So yes, 83% sorry. Not quite the 90%.

My.

Bad.

@Waveney Wrong.

Estimates suggest that there are between 700,000 and 1.2 million illegal immigrants in the UK, but the exact percentage of the total population is difficult to determine due to varying estimates of the total population size. As of recent figures, the UK population is projected to be around 67 million, which would mean illegal immigrants make up approximately 1-2% of the total population.

@SumKindaMunster That model from the Pew Research Centre is 10 years out of date and was shown to use flawed methodology. The new estimate is thought to be about 700,000 illegals in the UK, and the population is 69.5 million as of 2025.

Almost preceisely 1%

Besides, my point still stands. Illegal migration is not the cause of our country's many problems. The cause is 14 years of Conservative austerity, corporations being put first and people being put last.

It's called greed.
