I've wondered about this too. It seems like people who have never been involved with activism reject environmental and social justice because of wokism. And, to be honest, I'm not even sure that I grasp the term's meaning.

You say that overall immigration has not increased. I'm not sure that is correct....

Thank you this is why I post on substack. I have edited to make it clearer. The number of asylum seekers in boats (rather than from the EU in lorries) has increased though the overall number has remained stable in recent years. The number is also not record levels and is lower than in 2002. https://evolvepolitics.substack.com/p/watch-how-the-uk-government-completely-manufactured-the-immigration-crisis-to-distract-you-from-something-much-worse

The number of people immigrating exceeds the number of emigrating so the population is rising and young people from abroad continue to wipe our bums and pay our pensions. However, this is not what people are up in arms about; the stop the boats crisis was deliberately created.
