(assuming they accept the fact that immigrants are net higher contributors to public funds)
It’s not that simple: https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/the-fiscal-impact-of-immigration-in-the-uk/

Maybe, although that's solely the cultural argument.
The other is purely logistical - pressure on services, need for housing etc.
They then have to acknowledge that we either can't or won't build the services needed to make this go smoothly (assuming they accept the fact that immigrants are net higher contributors to public funds).
Actually makes most sense in a nimby perspective - we could deal with more people but we don't want to build more and change things.
