Immigrants follow the money, so live in London, which is already hugely overcrowded. Londoners get sick of the overcrowding and move out to the suburbs, or anywhere within a couple of hours or so commuting distance of London.
This is why the Guardianistas couldnt understand Clacton being so pro Brexit, when hardly any immigrants live there.
Point is, much of the population of Clacton used to live in London.
The Brakkers building scenario is very similar to most towns and villages across the South of England. They are building houses all over the place around here. Residents complain, but get ignored because "we have a housing shortage / crisis."
W dont have a housing crisis, we have an over population crisis. House builders dont care though, they are in the land of milk and honey and theres no sign of it stopping any time soon.
