June 23, 2016, seems like a lifetime ago. If the date rings a bell, it is because that is when 52% of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. Known as Brexit, the EU Referendum was a shambles, with politicians lying through their teeth and playing on the insecurities of the uneducated and unwashed.
For many, Brexit was meant to see the United Kingdom regain control of its borders and send home anyone who wasn’t British-born. While you didn’t have to be racist to vote leave during Brexit, all the racists did.
Claims of the UK sending £350 million a week to Brussels were bullshit, yet politicians have defended that figure since. Brexiteers eagerly ticked leave on their ballot papers, believing it would put an end to the stupid laws, rules, and regulations the EU sets. However, anyone with half a brain cell could see we’d still have to abide by those rules but no longer have any say in what they were.
The government’s latest immigration figures show that instead of curbing net immigration to the UK, Brexit has had the opposite effect. Net immigration is at an all-time high, hitting unprecedented levels, and the racist Brexiteers are fuming.
Brexiteers Vent Their Anger
The Yorkshire Tribune spoke to several Leave voters and asked for their opinions on the current state of the UK.
Minsthorpe’s Barry Hopkins called for the current government to stop all immigration.
“It’s not right, cocker. All these foreigners are coming over here, taking our jobs. My Universal Credit and PIP are under threat because all these brown buggers are heading here to work. Look at the doctors; they’re not from around here. I don’t want one of them lot treating me and saying I can go back to work. End all immigration, and end it now.”
John Elms mirrored Hopkins’ comments.
“I hate it when I’m pissed up and need to get home safely and all there is is one of them lot to drive the taxi home. It’s disgraceful that people from Africa and Asia are performing life-saving operations and keeping the NHS afloat. Torpedo the boats in The Channel; that’s what I say.”
Immigration Has Surged Since Brexit
Nigel Fromage, now leader of the Send The Buggers Back (STBB) Party, was a vocal leave campaigner in 2016. Fromage still believes the UK was correct to leave the EU but blames the Conservatives and Labour for not putting plans into action fast enough.
“Net immigration hovered around 200,000 in pre-Brexit years but hit an all-time high of 745,000 in 2022. Our message is clear: if you’ve got brown skin, you can’t come in. It’s about time Keir Starmer’s Labour government put white British people first,” slurred Fromage.
What the 68-year-old gammon and his fellow Brexit lovers fail to see is only around 5% of the total UK immigration is due to asylum seekers. Most immigrants come here to study or work. Indeed, some 35% of NHS doctors and 27% of NHS nurses are immigrants. Because Brexit curtailed the free movement of EU workers, the UK had and still has no choice but to cast its net toward Asia and Africa to make up the shortfall in doctors and nurses.
Why Is Net Migration Still High?
Ironically, having tighter border control has ultimately resulted in net immigration increases. When the UK had open borders with the EU, they acted like a revolving door, with migrants traveling back and forth. No sooner had Brexit been signed, these return rates plummeted.
Some Eastern European workers returned to their homelands, but many applied for residency through the EU Settlement Scheme. This effectively pushed them into a permanent settlement. The end of free EU movement meant more non-EU workers were recruited, and these tend to stay long. Why? Because they have to jump through hoops, fill in reams of paperwork, and spend a lot of money getting here. If it’s difficult to arrive somewhere, people tend to stay longer.
Furthermore, those long-distance migrants who stay longer are more likely to bring their spouses and children with them because they can’t freely or easily move back and forth. Fromage disagrees.
“Not got white skin? Then you’re not coming in. That should be the UK’s mantra. We have enough people here to fill every available job. Once we start with our wall building around ethnically diverse communities, there’ll be even more jobs. We don’t need the darkies to come here, nor do we want them to.”
Study Shows Brexit’s Damaging Effect on the Economy
A report compiled by Cambridge Econometrics shows some startling figures. Released in January 2024, the report shows that Brexit’s cost to the UK’s economy is an incredible £140 billion. The average Briton was £2,000 worse off in 2023, and there are 1.8 million fewer jobs now than would have been had Brexit not happened.
Who would have thought that cutting off your country’s balls would have long-lasting negative effects? Still, continue blaming the poor buggers on makeshift boats for the United Kingdom’s problems if it makes you feel better.
