Piers Morgan: “There’s No Invasion of Muslims in the UK” — Pushes Back on Claims About Immigration During Heated Debate With Patrick Bet-David Piers Morgan: “The grooming gang scandal in the UK was a total disgrace.” He acknowledges that the perpetrators in the particular scandal were predominantly British Pakistani men and that many young white girls were horrifically abused. Piers Morgan: Also condemns the systematic cover-up, saying it was driven by a fear of being branded racist and describing it as “a stain on my country.” Piers Morgan: Turns to the wider immigration debate, arguing that successive UK governments have failed to control immigration, leading to a sharp population increase and enormous pressure on public services. Piers Morgan: Points to the National Health Service, explaining that Britain’s population has grown significantly while public infrastructure has struggled to keep up. Piers Morgan: But when Patrick Bet-David raises concerns about Muslim immigration and the possibility of America experiencing similar problems, Morgan pushes back strongly. Piers Morgan: “I do not recognize in any way this suggestion that we’ve been invaded by Muslims. It’s just not true. The Muslim population in the UK is still 5–6% of the country. There’s no invasion.” Is Piers Morgan right that the UK has an immigration problem but not a Muslim invasion?
