This statement is false. Migrant workers generally contribute positively to the UK's economy. They fill important job vacancies, pay taxes, and contribute to the national insurance system. They also support the economy by spending their earnings on goods and services, which helps to create jobs in various sectors. The claim that they are a strain on the economy and support few other jobs or industries is not supported by the majority of economic analyses. However, the understanding of the impact of migrant workers can vary depending on various factors including the state of the economy, public services, the labor market, and the specific sectors in which migrants are employed.
