@edaleman2758 That is true, but most were native Europeans until modern times, with similar cultures, religion and languages. And there have also been centuries with hardly any migration as well. And because there have been waves of immigrants before, doesn't mean we should always allow it and not on this scale. A society needs time to adjust to cope with newcomers and also newcomers need time to integrate. And if you let in masses of immigrants with completely different values, culture and religion, it can lead to lots of tensions or worse. Which we see happening everywhere in Europe, where we have people who don't integrate and don't even want to speak our language. Where I live 80% of refugees don't speak Dutch after 10 years, same percentage doesn't work. I welcomed them, but they want to be amongst their own kind and don't want any contact with us. And also the violence they brought, like we had several stabbings in my street and massive fights between 2 groups of refugees in front of my house.
And Jews are natives too imo, I have never seen them otherwise.
We need shared language and values, without it we can get into a lot of trouble. Because then it is us and them instead of we.

@paulinebarbara5665 Every nation has had slavery if you deny that, you deny history. In India there are still people in slavery, often young girls who were kdnapped and sold as sex slaves. So, don't start please. In Africa and the Middle East there are plenty of slaves too, as in China.
It is estimated there are 60 million slaves worldwide, that is way more than at the height of the European slave era. Europe was the first to abolish btw, while slavery was legal in other countries until the 1970's. When the British ended slavery they tried fight slavery on the seas and coastal areas and lost 2000 of there men bcs of it.
Britain has been invaded before, you clearly don't know anything of history. First the Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans (from Normandy in France). They have been attacked by the Spainiards and the French and even the Dutch several times and on top of that Germany tried to invade it and bombed it in 2 world wars. So, what do you mean?
The Irish pirates in Saint Patrick's day took Brits as slaves. And the British and Irish were also taking into slavery by Barbary slave traders (muslims from North Africa who captured 1,5 million Europeans and sold them in the Middle East), etc, etc, etc
