With so many job vacancies, is it beneficial that more people want to come here? Amy Lewis reports

---

Net migration to the UK has climbed to a record half a million, driven by “unprecedented world events” including the war in Ukraine and the end of lockdown restrictions, according to new figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

Around 504,000 more people are estimated to have moved to the UK than left in the 12 months to June 2022, up sharply from 173,000 in the year to June 2021.

This is the highest net migration since the Second World War and is far higher than pre-Brexit levels.

Home Office estimates, meanwhile, indicate that around 89,000 Ukraine Scheme visa-holders arrived in the UK up to the year ending June 2022.

Are those her real lips ?

These days with the technology available do we really know if the "people" we see talking on tv are real?

The lying lips you need to concern yourself with are those of Braverman and the other members of the Government who have once again failed to deliver on an election promise.

No one has a problem with invited migrants coming here, it's the uninvited hordes. Luckily we're an island. One has to say Cui Bono, who benefits. As a working class guy I can say it ain't me.

I wonder where the Government think their overt anti-immigrant rhetoric is going to lead to?

 

While Braverman and Patel have been at the forefront of this rhetoric, the Government have stood on a platform of ‘controlling our boarders’.

 

The problem is, the Government has failed to ‘control our borders’.

 

The bigger problem is, the voting public have noticed the Government has failed to ‘control our borders’.

 

So the question arises, how does the Government, and Tory Party, think they will benefit from the anti-immigrant rhetoric?
