American conservative commentator Ann Coulter appeared on GB News with a stark message for Britain, declaring the nation required drastic action to avoid destruction.

"You have the most beautiful country. The whole time I'm here, I just think, why does anyone want to wreck this?" Coulter told presenter Nigel Farage on GB News.

Her solution proved startling in its simplicity: "You just need to deport them all."

The Reform UK leader challenged this sweeping proposal, pointing out fundamental legal obstacles.

"You can't deport people who've come here legally. You can't deport people who were born here," Nigel responded.

The exchange occurred against a backdrop of intense debate over Britain's immigration policies, as new figures revealed unprecedented population growth driven almost entirely by international migration.

Undeterred by the legal constraints, Coulter proposed an alternative approach targeting welfare provisions for migrants.

"You can stop giving them benefits. When I worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee many years ago, we had a welfare reform bill," she explained to the GB News audience.

The American pundit detailed how Republican-controlled Congress had previously implemented restrictions on immigrant welfare access.

"One of the provisions was, this is when Republicans took Congress so we could do a lot of stuff, if you were an immigrant coming here, including legal, you can't get welfare for five years," Coulter stated.

The Reform UK leader's response proved notably more receptive to this suggestion.

"That's just common sense," Nigel agreed, indicating alignment with the welfare restriction proposal despite rejecting mass deportations.

The conversation took place as official statistics revealed England and Wales experienced their second-largest population surge in 75 years.

Office for National Statistics data showed the population expanded by 706,881 in the twelve months ending June 2024, reaching 61.8 million residents.

International migration drove 98 per cent of this growth, with approximately 1.14 million arrivals and 452,000 departures creating a net increase of 690,147 people.

The figures represented the second-highest annual population jump since records commenced in 1949, surpassed only by the previous year's rise of 821,210.

Over two years, the population swelled by 1.5 million - marking the most substantial two-year expansion in recorded history.

Natural population change, calculated as births minus deaths, contributed merely 29,982 to the overall increase.

Reform UK's leadership expressed alarm at the demographic transformation, with Nigel describing the statistics as "disastrous for the quality of life for everyone in the country."

He warned the influx "puts impossible pressures on public services and further divides our communities."

Deputy leader Richard Tice characterised the data as "deeply concerning," citing implications for housing availability, crime statistics and living standards across Britain.
