Naturally, the safety and prosperity that exists almost uniquely in Western countries is an irresistible magnet.

All countries that say ‘anyone who gets here can stay here’ are in peril, given the scale of the population movements that are starting to be seen.

There are tens — perhaps hundreds — of millions of people, living in poverty and danger who might readily seek to enter a Western country if the opportunity is there.
