Too many immigrants into the UK

A net influx of 200,000 new people every year, or 1 million every 5 years is not a good thing. Mass immigration puts huge strain on schools, hospitals, housing and transport. It also discourages some of the 5 million unemployed in the UK from finding work. The only beneficiaries are employers who have a large supply of labour so they can bid down wages and working conditions. The welfare state in the UK should primarily benefit those who have been here a long time and paid the most into it. There should be no more immigration unless the immigrant has essential skills that cannot be sourced locally, and we need no more unskilled migrants.
