>I'm not sure making people live in tower blocks just so that more people from other countries can move here is all that fair of a solution
The only forcing going on in London is handing over between 30-50% of your paycheck just to have a roof over your head.
Nobody would have to be forced to live in an apartment. You just have to build them and people will rent or buy them.
As I said, unless you want to take this to a racist place it's not an issue of immigration. Not in the UK anyway.
>TBH property oligarchs would favour high migration
Yes, thats why the Tory party effectively used xenophobia to garner votes while simultaneously increasing net migration to the UK. It was all about throwing a racist bone to their voters who were heavily swayed towards UKIP before betraying them.
