Would you vote for Labour in a general election (whether Sir Keir or Andy led the party)?
I think a lot of people on Lemmy support the Greens but I very much doubt that the Greens could stop Farage becoming prime minister. Labour are probably the best-placed party to do that.
What would be your preferred rate of immigration? I think it might be sensible to say that if immigration happens too quickly then it could overwhelm services like the police and hospitals, but I don’t think that means immigration needs to be stopped altogether. There are immigrants in roles we depend on (such as doctors), paying taxes, and in some cases starting businesses and creating jobs.

There are 49,258 cities, towns, villages and suburbs in the UK. 50,000 immigrants would mean, on average, one extra person in each place. One.
Nonsense example with no bearing on reality.
@makingrain Numbers not your thing then?
