In a rare moment of honesty, the New York Times acknowledged this week that mass immigration causes housing prices to soar—a reality Americans have long known but the media has often denied. The admission came in a report covering protests in Mexico City, where locals are rebelling against rising rents and cultural disruption caused by a surge of foreign residents.
A new report reveals that mass migration has significantly increased rent costs across England, with the capital city of London seeing the most severe impact. The study, published by British think tank Onward, estimates that immigration since 2001 has added an average of £132 per month to rental costs in England—and a staggering £216 per month in London.
Newly elected Pope Leo XIV is signaling a major shift in tone from his predecessor by describing mass migration as a “huge problem,” marking a break from the unqualified pro-migration advocacy of the late Pope Francis. The comments, made by then-Cardinal Robert Prevost during a Catholic Mass, reflect a more balanced and realistic approach to one of the most pressing challenges facing modern nations.
