True, specifically Pakis and Jamaicans most of all. The UK has always been a "microcosm" of future America. Whatever happens there seems to take hold here a decade or so later, which is beyond scary seeing as they are 100% a police state today.
Thatcher is praised for her economic policies, but those policies were almost exclusively the product of (((Milton Friedman))), which brought rampant inflation, income equality, and the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression. And the UK has never really recovered from any of it. Taxes were raised through privatization, but none of that money was reinvested back into infrastructure. Those policies also gutted Britain's industry to convert it into another bullshit "service economy."
