I can't see how the press can construe any racism on the part of UKIP in quoting the article on the website - any more than the press can accuse the Telegraph of being racist for publishing the report.
A larger UK population swelled by immigration means more public money has to be put into public services; it results in housing shortages and it puts pressure on public transport and roads. And more people means more carbon emissions. In other words, immigration (except those who come here and benefit the UK economy and put in more than they take out) can cost the British people (including minorities in the British population who came here generations ago and who have never claimed benefits) a great deal of money.
I wonder how many illegal immigrants and/or the offspring from illegal immigrants in our country are using UK public services at out expense? Migrationwatch approached this matter only the other week and implied that the cost of this will rise.
