Introduction
As the modern period has progressed the extent of
immigration to the UK has changed drastically, and how this
impacts Britain’s economy is continuously debated.
Immigration today consists of vast numbers of labourers
entering the UK, having a huge impact on the British
economy. This essay will argue that immigration, with some
exceptions, is highly beneficial for the UK economy overall.
To prove this, my aim will be to demonstrate the benefits
and drawbacks of immigration, and my objectives will be to
show how different types of migrants impact the UK.
