Migrants are used as a distraction to point the finger of blame in another direction to the general public don’t blame the government for setting up a system that has broken and one that only ever favours the richest in society.

Unfortunately, many people have fallen for it.

There's always scapegoats unfortunately.

I remember David Cameron made people on benefits his scapegoats, and May and Boris both went for the EU/Brexit stuff.
