I didn't.
The quality and quality of non EU immigrants needs to be carefully controlled too. As automation gathers pace, we need to be thinking of ways to reduce the population when the need arises.

If the government actually used the rules there are in place and bothered to check when EU people entered the country, those without means of supporting themselves after 3 months could be sent back home.
But oh no, the UK does not bother to check when someone enters the country and then leaves our own benefit rules wide open to being taken advantage of.
So this is purely a UK problem in not following rules they could.
Oddly the number of immigrants to the UK has not changed, just fewer from the EU.
