Where do you draw the line? Your neighbours in your street or town,
your cousins, your siblings, your children, your wife? Who should you
care for over and above you?This whole 'we'll keep the foreigners out' thinking is totally flawed. If you ever want to actually stop the free movement of people into the UK you'd need to deal with Ireland.
We have a longstanding agreement with Ireland (not the EU, direct with themm the Isle of Man etc.) called the Common Travel Area (CTA). The UK Border Force doesn't carry out routine immigration checks on travellers arriving into the UK from the CTA - you can literally walk from Ireland into Northern Ireland.
Ireland isn't going to stop EU citizens entering Ireland and, therefore, the CTA.
There is only one way to stop EU citizens entering the UK via the CTA from Ireland and that is to end the CTA, which would mean bringing back the border controls between Ireland and Northern Ireland. I.e. remilitarise the border, like in the days of the troubles.
Do you really think that's ever going to happen?

I'm not taking this your a racist bullshit for wanting the best for British people. There's nothing wrong with a healthy amount of nationalism.
