Mass migration threatens to “break up Britain and create ghettos”, according to ex-Tory MEP David Campbell Bannerman.

Speaking on GB News, Bannerman was discussing a shocking new report that projects an unrecognisable Britain in just 10 years.


The Centre for Migration Control, who conducted the report, found that the UK population will explode to over 73 million by 2035, with almost a quarter being first-generation migrants.

Bannerman told Tom Harwood and Emily Carver this threatens damaging consequences for the country.

“It’s a border emergency. Nobody has voted for this and it’s out of control”, he said.

“All of these pressures being put on the system and it’s not responding to the popular will.

“I think the starting point is, the Treasury views immigration as an economic benefit when it isn’t. They come in and have low wages and they’re in need of benefits, housing and they impose huge pressures on public services.

“Why don’t we get our own people back to work? The whole system needs to be sorted out.”

Tom Harwood pointed out that the Government will point to a “sharp fall” in immigration in recent times and a potential halving in just a year.

“All the indications we have is that migration is going to be a lot lower this year than the last”, he said.

Bannerman responded: “The problem is, if you have 25 per cent of your population as first generation migrants, they can’t integrate properly.

“The scale of this will create ghettos and break up Britain. It is very serious.”

The report projects the total number of first-generation migrants will be 18,222,000, around 24 per cent of the total population of the UK.

Research Director of the CMC, Robert Bates, said: “The strain being placed on our public services by mass migration is extraordinary.

"A surging population inevitably means that people’s quality of life will be diminished.”

“We must recognise that the social and cultural costs for Britain are just as great.

"This analysis shows that Britain in 2035 will be a very divided place.”

Bates added: “Assimilation into the British way of life becomes impossible when migration accounts for such a large proportion of the population.”
