Episode notes
Post-Brexit Surge Changed Britain
- Christopher Caldwell says Britain admitted roughly 4.5 million immigrants between 2021 and 2024, about 7% of the population.
- He argues this rapid non-European immigration has destabilized British politics and contradicted Brexit's promise to limit immigration.
Why U.S. Immigration Was Unique
- Caldwell contrasts U.S. 19th-century immigration with modern European migration and says the U.S. case was unique because of open land and demographic need.
- He warns modern immigration often replaces indigenous populations rather than adding to them.
Use Sovereignty To Regain Border Control
- Caldwell notes English conservatives propose withdrawing from the European Convention on Human Rights and the 1950s Refugee Convention.
- He implies that passing such sovereign exits would enable stricter deportation and immigration controls.
