The latest UK ‘Issue’ polling confounds the pollsters and political elite by showing that ‘Immigration’ is now the most important issue facing the country. It is to the credit of the British people that they are dead right. Immigration is the most important because it drives every other issue from immigrant labour displacing indigenous workers and moderating wages to putting pressure on UK infrastructure. In fact, migration is the most important issue facing policy makers worldwide – scratch the surface of any other and the effects of the movement of people will be in there somewhere.
