In the US it is "anchor babies" that have been used to allow illegals to stay in the country. In England it is the arranged marriages between cousins that is often used.
Unfortunately the law of unintended consequences applies. Just as marriages between first cousins in the rural isolated Appalachian hills of the South was a recognized problem in the past, England has re-invented the problem.
UK: Cousin marriages on the rise
A rise in the number of marriages between cousins in Britain has prompted calls for a crackdown on the practice amid warnings it is putting children's health at risk.
Crossbench peer Baroness Deech has called for a 'vigorous' public campaign to deter marriages between family members, which is common in Muslim and immigrant communities.
Her comments come as figures show up to 75 per cent of British Pakistanis in some areas are married to first cousins.
In a speech to be made next week, obtained by The Times, the leading family lawyer will warn that such marriages can be a barrier to the integration of minority communities and increases the risk of birth defects in children.
She is also expected to call for testing for genetic defects when marriages between family members are arranged and for a register of people carrying genetic diseases to be set up in order for two carriers not to be introduced.

Up to three-quarters of Pakistanis in Bradford are married to their first cousins.
The trend is also evident in Birmingham, where figures show that one in ten of all children born to first cousins died in childhood or suffered from a serious genetic disorder.
British Pakistanis, half of whom marry a first cousin, are 13 times more likely to produce children with genetic disorders than the general population, according to Government-sponsored research.
Although British Pakistanis account for three per cent of the births in this country, they are responsible for 33 per cent of the 15 to 20,000 children born each year with genetic defects.

Setting aside the human suffering of the children born with birth defects, the strain created by this problem on an already over extended government health care system is huge and can only grow larger as the immigration policy continues. Simply put, the expanding Muslim population spells the end to England as we knew it.
