"

Net migration - the difference between the number of people coming to live in the UK and those emigrating - rose to 182,000 in the year to June, up from 167,000 in the previous 12 months.

Prime Minister David Cameron wants to get this figure below 100,000 before the next election in 2015."

I nearly split my sides laughing. Just one and half years to get it down by 82000. But to be fair it looks as though it has risen due to fewer people leaving. Perhaps he should start making it more attractive for UK citizens with Thai spouses to leave the country, not that I don't get more depressed as each month passes and would love to leave.
