Original Note:
This is an American talking point. Prior to the Irish Famine immigration was limited to one-off waves of c50,000 (e.g Huegenots) and military conquest by force (e.g Saxon settlement). Regular and significant net migration is a relatively new phenomenon to Britain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_immigration_to_Great_Britain
