“The Office for Budget Responsibility calculates that a low-skilled migrant by the age of 80 will, on average, have cost the taxpayer £582,000 and low-wage migration in general will end up producing a net fiscal cost running into the tens of billions.”
Nice to see more coverage from mainstream media that acknowledges that low skilled immigration does not contribute to the economy. The idea that it'll fix declining birthrates is a blatant lie.

If the measure of "contributing to the economy" is only measured in 'fiscal' terms, then yes. This doesn't sound like an 'immigration' problem or an 'economic' one.
What the fuck else are you measuring? Unicorn farts?
Assuming unicorn physiology is similar to typical ruminants, measuring unicorn farts would be a lot more objective...
The market will sort it out, if allowed
