Populist support for limits in Immigration can be attributed to several reasons. Firstly, populists often emphasize the protection of national identity and culture, and they believe that unrestricted immigration could threaten these aspects. Additionally, they argue that increased immigration can lead to economic competition for jobs and drive down wages for native workers. Finally, there is also concern among some populists that uncontrolled immigration may pose security risks and strain public resources.
