Isn’t it strange that Rishi Sunak is so determined to destroy Britain and his own party with an ever growing flood of migrants?
We can see the damage of mass migration everywhere. Our environment is now one of the most degraded on earth, with our waterways poisoned by overflowing sewage. Our cramped and increasingly unaffordable housing stock is now ranked the worst in the developed world. Social cohesion is collapsing everywhere with an explosion in violence, rioting and crime. No wonder we have a mental health pandemic, rising poverty and a public sector in permanent crisis.
So it is no surprise that his MPs, the British public and his party members keep telling him to stop. It has now been made clear that the Prime Minister Sunak has been presented with plans and proposals almost daily to slash immigration to sustainable levels. Doing so would boost the economy, improve public services, reduce poverty, lower inflation, and raise more money for the British treasury. Not only that, but a radical change of approach could win back millions of votes and shut down Farage and Tice. It would also be the honest thing to do: The Conservative Party has been promising this since 1992!

And yet Sunak has blocked all of them, instead opening the door even further. Why is a British PM so determined to wreck Britain, wreck his personal reputation and wipe his party out?
There is only one plausible explanation: The Sunak family’s entire fortune is built on lax immigration rules, legal loopholes and pushing for ever more open borders, regardless of what voters want. As Rishi Sunak likes to say; “family is everything to me.” That means the rest of us must suffer.
Sunak’s wealth largely comes from his wife’s stake in an Indian IT services company called Infosys. Infosys operates globally. It is massive; and has recently won billions in British government contracts. But Infosys is not really about IT.
The founder of Infosys, Narayana Murthy, is Rishi Sunak’s father in law. Murthy has described how Infosys’ job is to act as an immigration agent for its employees. In other words, companies like Infosys recruit staff from India and Africa by guaranteeing to get them and their families into Western countries like the UK and US. This enables them to attract loyal staff who will work extremely hard for low wages, lured by the promise of immigration.
To fulfil their promise, companies like Infosys employ huge numbers of immigration lawyers, to hunt out the easiest visas and migration loopholes. Once they get their staff in, the lawyers help them push for more visas for children, spouses, siblings, uncles, aunts, and in-laws; with the aim of gaining citizenship as soon as possible.

A single migrant can ultimately bring dozens of dependents; eager to feast on the all-you-can-eat buffet of the British public services we pay for. This includes charities, education, social services and of course, healthcare. Go to any inner city hospital A&E and you will hardly hear a British accent. Instead you will witness the world and his wife turning up with a shopping list of chronic health conditions and demanding instant treatment. Ironically, because of equality guidelines, they will almost certainly get priority over Britons who have paid taxes their entire lives and will die on waiting lists. This is the Sunak/Infosys business model hard at work.
And that is how the Sunak family make their billions. They attract loyal and hard working staff from India and Africa with the promise of migration to the developed world. Then they use lawyers and lobbying to get visas for themselves and their families. As I have shown, large Indian and African families routinely claim over a million pounds worth of British public and charitable services within five years of arriving, and far more once they’ve got citizenship – something that is extremely easy to do.
British citizenship is extremely valuable. As well as giving convenient travel and access all over the globe, it comes with one of the most generous ranges of rights and benefits anywhere – not least the word’s most comprehensive free-at-the point-of-use healthcare system.

The true market value of British Citizenship is well over £0.5m per person: equivalent to several million pounds for a family. Yet the government currently charges just £1400, and often we waive that! Imagine we sold off NHS ambulances (worth £250k each) to foreigners for £500!
And because Infosys staff can claim all this, they are loyal and hardworking. That allows Infosys to pay low wages and make billions in profits. Our British public sector and citizenship scheme is, in effect, a million-pound work perk for every migrant employee. We are paying the wages of migrants so multinationals can make billions.
This is so fundamental to the business models of thousands of multinational companies like Infosys, that they will do anything to keep getting the immigration places they need. And that includes breaking the law.
Over the past decade or so, Infosys has been fined roughly $50m for flagrantly and repeatedly abusing the US immigration system. In one instance Infosys were fined a record $34m for violating immigration laws. This is not a one-off. These cases keep happening again and again. It seems to be systemic and continuous. Luckily for Infosys, they are well connected enough to get out-of-court settlements every time.
Is it any wonder Mr Sunak is not willing to tackle the endemic abuse and fraud at the heart of immigration, including small boats, when his family’s business has been repeatedly caught doing it on an industrial scale? Is there really any difference between trafficking and the antics of the Prime Minister’s family businesses?

But Infosys goes further than breaking the law. Like many large global corporations, Infosys is heavily involved in lobbying. One of their top lobbying issues is relaxing immigration rules. Often they lobby as part of a co-ordinated group of Indian IT giants, through an Indian-based lobbying organisation called Nasscom. Nasscom enjoys continuous and privileged access to the top echelons of British Establishment and collaborates closely with the British government. Like many Indian multinationals, Infosys pays millions to Nasscom for their services.
It may well be a coincidence and there may well have been no malpractice, but almost as soon as Rishi Sunak became Chancellor, he personally pushed for (and got) fast-track visas for tech workers. These are the same kind of visas that Infosys and Nasscom had been lobbying for since at least 2015. These include light-touch visas for tech workers and “elite” graduates. On top of this, Sunak proposed even more fast-track visa programmes for IT companies and their staff. It is unclear whether Sunak declared any conflicts of interest when pushing these new schemes through.
While Infosys may be a stand-out, this is how hundreds of large Indian and international companies now operate: by attracting cheap and loyal migrant labour that western taxpayers ultimately pay for. Unless you’re a big business, migrant labour is not cheap at all.
And our universities do the same. Just as with migrant workers, foreign students can claim millions each from British public services, charities and citizenship. Foreign students are particularly economically damaging, because they are unlikely to pay any tax whatsoever. For a start, universities are charities. That means student places are already subsidised by government (e.g. Gift Aid) and via endowments. Moreover, universities do not pay VAT, corporation tax or even local business rates. And the students themselves do not pay council tax and are unlikely to earn enough to pay income tax.
Thus, the government is spending a fortune seducing foreign students to the UK – in some cases at a cost of over a million pounds per student – but it is getting back almost nothing in tax. Tot it all up and foreign students cost every British household roughly £1000 a year. And that is before we consider the environmental and social costs. What makes it even more insulting is that universities are now routinely picking foreign students over British applicants, depriving our kids of their futures. No wonder we are getting poorer. Migrants are stripping every British family of thousands of pounds a year and destroying our natural environment, housing, communities and opportunities.

The cruelty of this cannot be underestimated. While families like the Sunaks line their pockets with billions more they do not need, the economic effect on Britain’s poorest households is devastating. That burden includes suppressed wages, diluted access to public and charitable services, sky-high housing costs, and infrastructure pressures, including pollution and congestion. If we add these up, mass migration os costing the UK’s poorest households on average, over £300 per week, every week. For low income families, that is the difference between a comfortable quality of life, and a highly stressful and unpleasant existence. No wonder child poverty, mental health problems and deaths of despair are soaring.
In our draft Conservative Democratic Manifesto we showed how fixing immigration could be achieved quickly and completely; raising billions for the Treasury, slashing numbers and reigniting grass-roots support. We could even have a Brexit style Fix Immigration Now Referendum to do so. If you agree with these proposals, please do forward them to your MP and Party Contacts.
But firstly Sunak will almost certainly have to go. You cannot vote Conservative or fund a party with him and Hunt at the helm.
Like rapacious Battery farmers, Sunak and Hunt are intent on ramming more and more people onto this tiny island, while providing us all with less and less – less housing, less infrastructure, less services. We do not even have enough gas or water. And to top it off, they steal our freedoms and squeeze out every last drop of prosperity to fund their global personal interests and the wasteful blob.
As any decent farmer will tell you, if you treat animals like this, you will eventually face catastrophic collapse. The chickens become sick and unproductive. They stop reproducing. They become angry and violent – attacking each other and even harming themselves. Sound familiar?
In battery farm Britain we can take no more. The chickens are coming home to roost.

What has this to do with migrants? I believe it was the conservative party that voted this through?
If you cannot understand why filling our country with an excess population, is causing a strain on our infrastructure, maybe you should do a bit more research. Plus the fact that is the immigrant excess that is causing the problem.
A few years back I was working on an IT project run by Tata Consulting Services (IT arm of Tata, the parent of JLR)/
Some of the Indian guys I was working with had been at JLR for 10 years on the same 6 month visa, which just kept getting extended. These firms have awesome power over government
