Perhaps you're right.
But it can't be just the UK - to open our borders would alone be disastrous, in so many ways.
It's only just talked about at the United Nations.
France, Germany and Italy have accommodated much more than us - to the cost of their political leaders' futures.
As a result, those against such benign immigration policies have become extremists.
Which we have seen so often recently, on the streets of our capitals.

Comparing figures from two totally different eras is meaningless.
On a per capita basis, at the moment, Australia has about 25% more prisoners than the UK.
The cost of prisoner incarceration is also much higher - so perhaps they're treated better.

A Skilled Visa pass mark - of 70/75 - is soon to be required to even elicit an invitation to apply for immigration into Australia.
If granted, numerous conditions appy; so that is as unlikely as that great country's biggest indigenous population going snow blind.
Baaaa baaaa baa

It's true Australia used to be a land of convicts, but now they seem to be taking the same path as anywhere else. They were one of the first to introduce a sex offender register and they recently took the unprecedented step of banning sex offenders from leaving the country. Absolutely evil idea. I
As far as I know Oz has Sex Offender Registers similar to the UK.
Each state has it's own rules and I did know an ex-cop who looked after one in NSW..said it was a pain in the neck as he spent so much time just seeing those on it throughout the year as they came to the station and supplied their details.
It's confidential and most people come off it after a number of years.
There is a vile MP called Derryn Hinch who used to be a "shock jock" who is a convicted criminal for breaching court orders 3 times and who once sympathized with a man convicted of sleeping with an underage person who looked legal...Hinch claims the same thing happened to him.
This ghastly Hinch (who also used to edit a Murdoch gutter tabloid) wants one of those US style registers where all details are published on the net but fortunately the more conservative politicians resist his rubbish while those on the 'left' cower, too frightened to make a squeak.
And he's a New Zealander to boot..horrible man.

immigration is fair
Maybe so - but, often, the natives don't think so.
Incidents of violence against foreigners evidence this.
Such as last night in Bottrop, Germany - where a Mercedes driver drove into a group of non-nationals.
Not so unusual these days, in so many countries.
Trump's America First philosophy is replicated - all over Europe.
