#3 To be fair, it is the Guardian, selling the Narrative in what purports to be a factual article. Plenty of Tory politicians believe the same thing, and don't differentiate between productive Europeans and dole-seekng "refugees". But given that Princess Katherine is rumoured to be pregnant with her third, and many actresses are making the same choice, improved prosperity and security at home ought to goose law-abiding, middle class British fertility numbers.

#6 Assuming that was true that they needed those numbers, why not promote British to have children or immigration from Australia, New Zealand, and Canada rather than bring in folks from foreign cultures that have previously caused problems?

Even bringing in Bonded laborers from Latin America would be smarter than their previous plans to keep the numbers up.
