"Many countries engaged in the second demographic transition [high life expectancy and persistently low birth rates] are pursuing utilitarian immigration policies... for economic reasons – because pro-natalist policies cannot stop declining population numbers."
"Saying we don't want any more immigrants is... economic nonsense."

@GeofCox@climatejustice.social Trouble is, anti-immigration types use immediate data/feelings but the impact only becomes clear and obvious to most decades on and there’s minimal attempts by authorities to educate on the lag. Instead they appear happy to pander to the anti-immigration lobby to the extend of entering a competition on performative cruelty to prove their credentials.
