As an ex squaddie you'll be only too well aware that England, together with other countries such as France & Germany, in the past saw no harm in seeking to take / taking over countries, exploiting their "benefits" and forcing the natural indigenous inhabitants to conform to their ideals, language and cultural quirks.
What is happing now is merely an extrapolation of that very same process although now that the shoe is on the other foot, for want of a better euphemism, some people are getting overly upset.

That may be true, we also used slaves & had barbaric laws, all of which are now outdated & in the past. This problem is here, now, the problems need to be adressed, saying well we did it, wont solve anything.
My point regarding benefits are simple, if someone in Afganistan, Iraq, Iran, is in danger & seeks asylum, why travel through several "safe" european countries, just to get here? The obvious answer is, Britain is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
