Therefore, the author claims that London lives off foreigners. However, Britain does not much like foreigners.【T4】British people, especially those who are not Londoners are pressuring their government to cut immigration and restrict students’ right to work, which the author thinks is going to mar London’s brilliance and speed London and Britain’s relative decline.【T5】Though London’s moment will inevitably pass because of the emerging market elsewhere.

The least that it should is to discourage foreigners from coming, the author concludes.
