But how is any of this the fault of immigrants? My dad wants to kick me out. If I tell the council I’m being made homeless, I will get sent to a hostel in Luton. According to my tory-loving colleague, this is the fault of asylum seekers.

The actual truth is this is the fault of Thatcher and successive governments selling off council homes. Rich foreign scalpers buy up property and sit on it until it makes them money. There are thousands of empty residential properties gathering dust so they can build up in value for these wealthy scalpers. Flats where £200k can buy you a 25% share of a studio is what’s shown as affordable housing in London. Housing has become a commodity for the rich to trade and profit off, rather than a human need. I’m working class, on a little above minimum wage and soon losing my job again (because of the council, not immigrants. First job I lost was because of Philip Green and his wife being greedy pigs).

Tell me how immigrants are making my life worse, but the wealthy get a pass. Immigrants are keeping a lot of businesses going (just see the Brexit farm debacle).

So you can look for the easy scapegoat if you want, or you can actually look at what’s causing these issues. As People vs Elon showed in their poster, they tell you to blame immigrants so you don’t blame billionaires.
