I don't recall anyone on TV expressing "fear and loathing of
foreigners" -
Vox pop from places like Wisbech and Boston which they claim are
overwhelmed by Lithuanians and Poles.
Here's the same kind of sentiments in print:

unless you are referring to the desire to have proper control of
immigration which is already running at over 600,000 (1% of the
population) a year and we are already one of the most densely populated
countries on the planet.
One of the problems with the stats is counting foreign students (whose
fees many Universities depend on) as immigrants. Another is the
notoriously poor handle we have on the number of economic migrants
returning home.
