Re "taking our jobs". Migrants create their own demand and their own economy, so the impact is certainly not as high some claim. However, that is hardly of any benefit to existing citizens, it does not increase the GDP per capita and adds to numerous pressures on schools, housing etc.
In so far as it does impact those at the bottom of our society, it is not the white British this mainly affects but descendants of previous migrant waves:

Curious how some laud mass immigration as such a positive thing while it is happening yet, given a few decades, they are telling us how the failures of those same ethnic groups are all due to exclusion. Maybe it is in part but then, regardless of reasons, if something does not work logic suggests we should stop doing it.

PS:
The overall conclusion from existing evidence is that immigration has
very small impacts on GDP per capita, whether these impacts are
positive or negative. This conclusion is in line with findings of studies
of the economic impacts of immigration in other countries including
the US
