NextImg:‘Brexit was not a vote for mass immigration – The Tories have failed us,’ writes Richard Tice

Brexit was a seismic moment in our nation’s history. We regained our sovereignty and independence to make our own decisions from bungling bureaucrats in Brussels.

It was and still is a great opportunity to improve our quality and way of life. I am incredibly proud to have played a role in making it happen, after the establishment tried to stop the will of 17.4 million people.

The slogan was simple: take back control of our money, laws and borders. In any walk of life if you are going to do a job, do it properly. Don’t do a half job. We have the chance to turn a lumbering container ship into a sleek speedy cruise ship.

The point is that our politicians and civil servants cannot blame Brussels anymore. We can measure them directly by their performance.

But ask yourself whether the Tory Government have reduced taxes, such as VAT on domestic energy. Have they spent our money wisely? Have they reduced the thousands of daft EU regulations that burden our businesses, and reduce productivity, meaning lower growth? The answer sadly to all these questions is no. They had and still have the chance to do so. Are you optimistic they might do so? No, in fact the Tories have agreed the opposite.

We now learn that they have indirect alignment with ongoing EU rules, as it has said it will introduce no new laws in the UK that conflict with Northern Ireland, which has to comply with EU trading rules.

The other great opportunity was to get control of our borders and decide our own immigration rules, ending EU Freedom of Movement. This was an important factor for Brexit voters and Tory politicians promised, in many elections as well as the Brexit vote, that they would reduce lawful immigration. They pledged an Australian-type skills-based points system that would reduce numbers and increase the skill base.

Instead, they again did the opposite. They created a discount points system meaning that people on just 2/3rds of the average national salary could come for low-paid, low-skilled jobs. They also made it easier for students and dependents to come to study and then have the automatic right to stay. But this added a burden onto our housing and public services, not a benefit.

The result is that in 2022, a new city the size of Birmingham arrived to live in the UK, a similar number is likely in 2023 and 2024.

Not only is this hugely increasing the population, but people are coming with no intent of signing up to our British culture and way of life, but to carry on as they are, in multicultural silos that do not encourage integration and absorption.

Brexit was not a vote for mass immigration but that is what the Tories have enabled to happen.

In truth, Brexit has been betrayed so far, but with strong leadership, we can make the most of the opportunity from here.
