Bill O’Reilly traveled to England for a News Nation report. He provided WABC’s Rita Cosby and John Catsimatidis with a recap. He said immigration there is “totally out of control.” He started with statistics.
“So in 1999, the foreign-born population of Ireland was 2%. Today it’s 23 percent. 5 million people live in the Republic. So, you can see the vast numbers in the UK, England: the 1980 foreign-born population was 4%; now it’s 21%. 4% to 21% in the UK; in London, more than 40%, four percent of residents in the capital city.
Catsimatidis said, “They woke up one morning, and they went from 67% down to 47%. And why don’t they admit it? Are they scared? Are they scared to say that they want their country back?”
O’Reilly continued…
“Well, the media will brand you as a racist…”
“So people say, okay, you’re doing a special siege of London. Why should we care? We live in Toledo, or we live in Connecticut. Why do we care what’s happening over there? Because it could happen here, and if Kamala Harris had won, it would be well underway.
“And people don’t remember that everybody has short memories, but if Trump had not won, the open border would continue. She never would have closed the border.
“So then what you have is a surge. I lived in London in 1969 as a student. It was an area called Edgeware Road, a fairly affluent white working-class British neighborhood. It’s now 100% Muslim, and we had a higher security go in there and shoot, you know, my stand-up and stuff like that. I mean, these people did not like us there, and they don’t assimilate. And then the rise of anti-Semitism is really a problem.
“Now, here in America, we’re not going to have a Muslim problem, because geography will prevent that. It’s too hard for the migrants to get from Africa and the Middle East over here. They can do it, but it is complicated for them, too. And with Trump shutting down the borders and making it difficult to come in.
They aren’t coming to assimilate, but the progressives want this…
“So, what you have now is a surge of foreign nationals coming into affluent countries, and they’re changing the culture, and it was obvious in England; you could see it, and some people, not all, object to that.
