MATT GOODWIN: Immigration’s Hidden COST to the UK Economy

what impact is immigration having on the UK economy well if you listen to the expert class they'll tell you it's only having a good effect it's driving growth driving productivity well not so according to new analysis by the office for Budget responsibility it looks at different kinds of migration and it finds that low wage low skill migration exactly the kind of migration that that our political Elites are ushering in it began really with Tony Blair it continued accelerated under borus Johnson it's now ongoing with K starm and the labor government that kind of migration is a net fiscal cost not benefit for the UK economy it's bad for the economy it's bad for taxpayers it's bad for the British people and this analysis by the obr is also questionable because it assumes that migrants don't have any dependence they don't have any relatives and of course actually in reality they do so the overall cost to the UK economy is going to be even worse than these numbers suggest so listen as I've been saying for a while mattg goodwi and.org we've got 53,000 like-minded people we are all questioning the elite consensus
