“ Employment isn't really an argument I'd invoke, however I do think that bringing in cheap labour from other countries pushes down wages.”

There’s no evidence of that. Labour from overseas actually costs more and is utilised because of need for skills and labour.

On your other points, I get it. I just don’t feel the same and I’m not bothered about what demographic make up the country has. The UK exports its people and culture plenty and always has, so if people from other countries want to come and live and work here that’s fine by me.

The people who built the country are dead, and you could go back before the Norman conquest if you want to be pure about the indigenous people of these islands, and then even back before Roman times. To me it just doesn’t matter and I have no issue with change because it’s inevitable and always has been.
