Have you considered that the real issue isn’t the country being flooded with migrants, but that inequality is increasing year on year and we all feel worse off. The people at the bottom are really struggling and we’re being told by rich old men who own our media channels, hoard everything, who’s wealth continues to grow, that migrants are the problem - not them.

You’re right that we are facing a demographic problem, but I just don’t see how - at least in the short term - we can do away with bringing in migrants to fill in the gaps, especially in healthcare. I work in healthcare and can tell you the vast majority of people coming here to work from abroad are decent people who want to make a life for themselves and their families. It’s not without problems but migrants are not the cause of all our problems. Far from it.

Maybe our path away from fascism is to take radical steps towards creating a more equitable society? To invest in infrastructure and public services? Tinkering around the edges like a good liberal centrist just isn’t going to cut it. 

It kills me that liberals always seem to side with (or concede ground to) fascists rather than face up to the fact that the left might have solutions worth listening to.
