Britain's Countryside Is at Risk Of being lost forever -

To Unsustainable Immigration!

Due to the never-ending influx of illegal immigrants coming into Britain daily in ever-increasing numbers, which only stops for short periods of time when the weather conditions make it difficult to cross.

The UK's migrant climate is changing rapidly! See the Chart for the recent influx of illegal migrants. What does it mean for society? When will we prioritise sustainability?

The statement "Unsustainable Recurring Influx Of Migrants!" reflects a view that the high level of migration to the UK is causing unsustainable pressure on public services and finances, particularly due to the rapid increase in net migration in recent years. Official data shows significant population growth from net migration, leading an OBR official to warn of "substantial" burdens on public finances. Concerns also exist about the strain on infrastructure like housing and health services, and potential social impacts, although this perspective is contested by proponents of a more open society.

Arguments for Unsustainability

Strain on Public Services and Finances:
An Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) official warned that the current rate of migration is creating "substantial" burdens on public finances, delaying the ageing of the population but putting pressure on services.
Population Growth:
Net migration has contributed to record population increases, with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) finding the population of England and Wales grew significantly in recent years.
Pressure on Infrastructure:
The UK's ability to accommodate permanent residents has been questioned, with concerns about housing, health services, and other infrastructure being overwhelmed, according to The Telegraph and other News Outlets.
Social and Environmental Impact:
Some analyses suggest that rapid population increases from migration could lead to a "national emergency" if not addressed, with concerns about the future of rural and urban communities.

Contributing Factors to the Influx

Increased Legal Net Migration:
Levels of net migration rose significantly in the years to June 2023, reaching a record high of 906,000, which was a fourfold increase in a short period.
Irregular Crossings:
The Channel has seen a surge in small boat arrivals, with thousands of asylum claims being made, putting pressure on government resources.
Factors Driving Migration:
This includes a rise in people leaving work due to long-term sickness, a demand for foreign workers by employers, and a shrinking pool of available workers.

Counter Arguments and Context
"Moral" Crusade and Public Debate:
Some perspectives suggest that public opposition to immigration has been suppressed by lobbying groups and media, hindering a full critical discussion on the issue.
Unsustainable vs. Open Society:
While the UK has historically been an open society that welcomes outsiders, a view exists that the country has reached its limits for accommodating permanent residents, says The Telegraph.

30 Jul 2025 — Unless drastic steps are taken urgently, no environmental policy can protect rural and urban communities from being overpopulated.

Britains National Debt

The National Debt consists of what the Government has spent to date.

Is the spending on the illegal migrants included in the national debt?

Yes, all government spending, including the cost of detaining, processing, and potentially removing illegal migrants, is reflected in the national debt. While some expenditures might be covered by specific budgets like the Home Office's immigration enforcement budget, the total amount spent on these activities contributes to the overall fiscal balance and, consequently, the national debt.

Spending related to illegal immigration is included in the national debt.

The national debt represents the cumulative total of all the government's annual borrowing (deficits) over time. Any government spending not covered by tax revenue contributes to the deficit and, therefore, the debt.

Here’s how spending on immigration, including costs related to illegal immigration, affects the national debt:

How it Affects the National Debt

Government Spending:
Any money the government spends on activities related to illegal migration—such as border enforcement, detention, processing asylum claims, or providing public services—is an expenditure.
Fiscal Deficit:
When government spending exceeds its revenue (like tax income), it creates a fiscal deficit.
Borrowing:
To cover this deficit, the government must borrow money.
National Debt:
The accumulation of all past borrowing to finance deficits is what constitutes the national debt.

Therefore, spending on illegal migrants is accounted for within the broader government budgets and contributes to the fiscal deficit, which in turn adds to the national debt.

Debate on the costs associated with illegal immigration
2 May 2024 — Immigration Enforcement, a Home Office directorate, has taken responsibility for addressing illegal migration in the UK.

For example, some of the national Debt is because of the never-ending influx of illegal immigrants coming into Britain daily in ever-increasing numbers and the money that is spent on putting them up in Hotels and H.M.Os, feeding them and paying for their Asylum appeals. And possibly those that don't have a job, so rely on benefits, including housing, council tax benefit, etc.

Costs add to the deficit: Government departments like the Home Office incur significant costs related to immigration, including enforcement, processing, and providing accommodation and support for asylum seekers. If these costs exceed the allocated budget, they contribute to the public sector's borrowing for that year.
Accommodation costs are a major factor: For example, spending on hotels for asylum seekers has risen dramatically and is a substantial part of the Home Office's budget. These expenses are part of the overall government spending that can increase the annual deficit and, in turn, the national debt.
Budgeting challenges: The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) has noted that the Home Office has struggled to accurately budget for asylum costs in recent years, often requiring supplementary funding from the Treasury. This practice further highlights how migration-related spending contributes to public borrowing.
The national debt reflects all public sector borrowing: The UK's national debt, specifically Public Sector Net Debt (PSND), includes all debt held by the public sector. Therefore, all departmental spending, including that for illegal migration, is accounted for within the national debt.

The national debt is the total money a government owes

Primarily consisting of outstanding government bonds, notes, and bills sold to investors, and intragovernmental debt held by other government entities. These debts include securities like those issued for public spending and coronavirus support, as well as other government liabilities such as currency, deposits, and reserves created through economic interventions like quantitative easing.

The statement is partially correct but incomplete: the National Debt is not simply what the government has spent to date, but rather the total amount of money the government has borrowed and owes due to past deficits. Debt accumulates over years, unlike a deficit, which is the gap between spending and income within a single year.

Here's a breakdown:

Deficit vs. Debt:
The budget deficit occurs when a government spends more than it collects in revenue within a fiscal year. The national debt is the sum of all these past deficits that the government has borrowed to fund its activities.
How it's accumulated:
Governments borrow money by selling financial products called bonds, essentially taking out loans from investors and pension funds to cover the gap between their spending and income.
Why it matters:
The national debt indicates the total amount of outstanding financial obligations the government has. It's a key indicator for investors, analysts, and policymakers, showing a country's economic stability and creditworthiness.
The claim that the national debt consists of what the government has spent to date is incorrect
. The national debt is the total amount of money the government has borrowed over time to cover budget deficits.
Here is a breakdown of the differences between the national debt and government spending:
National debt
- The national debt is the accumulation of all annual budget deficits (where spending exceeds revenue) over the nation's history, minus any budget surpluses (where revenue exceeds spending).
- It is a snapshot of the government's total outstanding financial obligations at a specific point in time.
- The national debt is funded by selling government securities like bonds, notes, and bills to investors in the U.S. and abroad.

CULTURE SHOCK & ILLEGAL MIGRANTS

When cultures don't align, especially in the context of illegal immigration, conflicts can arise from different values, resulting in social unrest.

When Migrants try to demand that the host country and its indigenous citizens should change the Traditional social, cultural, and religious norms.

A lack of alignment between the cultures of undocumented migrants and their host countries can lead to a phenomenon akin to culture shock, with challenges and consequences for both the migrant and the host society.

#NEWS FLASH! No Migrants crossed the Channel for~

11 Full Days' from 23rd October to 2nd November in 2025.

With only 220 Migrants in 3 Boats coming over on the 22nd of October 2025, and in the previous week, only 401 Migrants in 8 Boats. See Updates below...

It could be down to the Bad Weather. We shall see in the coming weeks.

Or maybe the fact that the British Border Force has gone on strike and they won't be available to help them across, when our British Border Force should be turning all the boats back so they can't cross into British waters ("median line" or the "delimitation line). Our territorial sea waters from our British Beaches.)

As they would do the same distance from France to the British maritime boundary, and back to France (if Border Force turned them back), as they would have if they had continued to cross into our waters to the Port of Dover or our Beaches.

Only 217 Migrants in 3 Boats to the 16th November 2025

We have also had nearly a week of no boat crossings, only 217 Migrants in 3 Boats to the 16th November 2025. But this could be down to the bad storm we had, called Storm Claudia, which could give way to Snow, which may deter further boats; we can but hope. But we shouldn't just rely on hope or bad weather.

Shabana Mahmood (Home Secretary) has said she will shake up the way Migration is dealt with. We can only watch and see what really happens in the near future.
