Why do the people immigrate to the Uk?
World War 2  had killed a lot  of young men in their prime, and while they were away women took many of the jobs that the men normally did (par exemple: factory work, farm work etc). When WW2 ended, the women were expected to return home and be housewife's and mothers.
Britain needed immigrants to help rebuild the bombed and destroyed cities, work in the factories and replace the men who had been killed in WW2,and also to deliver services such as health care.
Without the immigrants, there would not have been Irish builders rebuilding London after the war, or Jamaican nurses working in the health service.
