My biased Personal view.immigration is a multidimensional issue.Which is further complicated by the former British Empire.After all many fought in the so called great wars which neither country wants to acknowledge fully. Take Ireland and India, Pakistan etc.Being second generation growing up in the UK, I found my friends either going to far British or too far to their parents culture in their attempt to belong somewhere.Added to the fact that the UK has always used immigration as a means of lowering labour costs, which will naturally set new immigrants against those that are more established. People come, they settle, they have families. New people come, have lower overheads, they too settle, have families ....The UK needs to have an honest conversation about immigration.This conversation needs to include the demographics of the population, the retraining of the existing population and state funding of low wages.
