I understand this, and I wished the UK (where I am) had a sane middle party, that could, for example, reduce illegal immigration while making the legal routes quicker and cheaper
Sounds like you’re actually looking for a leftist party. The only difference between an “illegal” immigrant and a productive contributor to society is paperwork.
I don’t know the numbers in the UK. But in the US, the average immigrant is MORE productive and less likely to commit violent crime than the average citizen.
Simple answers. (1) Someone that’s going to move to another country is an adult of working age. And (2) commiting a crime of any kind (violent or not) can result in losing a visa and being deported. The average citizen might get some minor time or have the money to get off.
If that makes sense to you. I really think you might be a leftist. You might just need to question the people trying to appeal to a nonexistent “center”. They’re likely trying to prevent you from understanding the left.
The “center” is usually just a means of the right trying to keep people from being progressive. The center (by definition) just works to maintain the current structures.
