He actually pretty explicitly pines for the condition of the past, where London was full of "native Brits," and makes no mention of immigration policy. Then he links to statistics showing that 60% of Londoners are native born British citizens.

So in his mind, you can be a British citizen born in Britain but not a "native Brit." I don't see how one can reach this conclusion unless you believe non-white people to be incapable of being "native Brits" despite being born and raised in Britain.

Again, would love to see where he advocates for any particular immigration policy. The post pretty explicitly admits to just preferring when London was more white (as evidenced by linking to stats showing London is not less British, simply less white)
