606,000 - Net inward UK Migration 2022

An interesting figure for UK NET migration - 606,000 which the BBC are announcing is a record level for the UK.

The UK appears from the figures to be attractive destination for people seeking a new life and its not as bleak a place to live as portrayed by some. After reading predictions pre - 2020 I was expecting the UK to have a declining population and net zero migration, by the end of 2022. Maybe 2022 is mainly a blip - I honestly don't know.

I have even met quite a few EU Nationals who have even moved to the UK in the last 4 years they say the UK offers a lot of job opportunities and the UK generally offers a non-discriminatory job market compared with other countries.

I would still like to see more positive attitude in this country toward people who have disability when it comes to recruitment and retention of people born in the UK. 3m of which are out of work and at least 50% want to work.

A representative from Cleaning employers announced on BBC Radio 5 today, it was impossible to find new cleaners in the UK at present. I didn't realise it was that bad for employers. He said the UK Government didn't allow him to go abroad and get new workers for cleaning. I do know from personal experience whole groups of people seem to be written off i.e. you have suffered from anxiety and depression and has some time out, so you have no chance with me as an employer. The represetative statement seems to back that up.

The BBC are implying a lot of the new immigrants are students who later leave the UK, but wouldn't a lot be leaving after their studies to balance up those arriving?

Of course these number are just those with visas.

Migration figures: Rishi Sunak says numbers 'too high' after new record set

The PM denies he's lost control after data shows the UK's population rose by 606,000 last year.

None of that has anything to do with immigration though, does it.

So leaving the EU to keep immigration low and protecting British workers is going great!

A country punching its own d*ck in, on repeat, while clowns cheer.

Both parties are going to offer UKIP policies on steroids. Do you have access to news website or a TV? I suggest you take a look!

I'm guessing you're part of the #FBPE lot?

What the major parties are offering is irrelevant in recognising what an error leaving the EU was.

They can promise whatever policies they like, structural pressures on the UK economy will mean that immigration levels will remain where they are. We just seem to have chosen to sacrifice our EU membership in order to change the composition of where these migrants come from.

Wtf is #FBPE?

Really? Like I said maybe try and switch your TV on or read the news or radio beyond that gritter O'Brien and take a look at Labour's policies for training and funding

These statistics will be in part due to Johnson

#FBPE are a group of stupid people, if you don't know just count your blessings

there are huge staff shortages in this country at the moment, every pub, cafe, b&b, shop and hotel where I live are advertising for staff and they cant get them, I volunteer on the NYMR and we cannot get catering and shop staff, we need immigration ! 400,000 of those immigrants were students and their families I believe.

I don't listen to O'Brien, I have a job.

Labour's policies are what they are - but the reality is, as @locomansimon says, the country is reliant on immigration and will remain so under a Labour government. And if you believe what Starmer promises, I have a bridge to sell you..and I say this as Labour member!

Ultimately, as I've already said, structural pressures will mean we get closer to the EU. If immigration is going to remain at these levels, why not have immigrants from the EU and reap the benefits of EU membership for our economy and our citizens?

Labour pursuing a Europe policy that is as deluded Theresa May's will have exactly the same results.

‘In 2022, net EU migration was -51,000. This means more EU nationals left the UK than arrived.’


www.bbc.co.uk

Who is allowed to come to live in the UK?

Most people wanting to come to the UK need to apply via a points-based system.

Ironically, Nigel Farage is recognising how disastrous it has been.....

Time will tell.

But given that you've nothing to say bar accusing me of being part of a club I've never heard of and a fan of a broadcaster I don't listen to, I'm going to continue to think that I've thought about this more than you.

I realised in 2018 where Brexit was heading and so was against a second referendum

Especially as Labour at the time and the #FBPE ignored a soft brexit and the only possible outcome was then Johnsons hard brexit which Starmer backed and now is clear there's no case for Labour to rejoin

You're only 5 years behind the times 👍

Have you read anything I've written?

I'm literally saying that structural pressures will mean that rejoining the single market is an inevitability and that the current Labour policy will, like all other Brexit policies, crumble when it meets with reality.

Is that what you thought in 2018?

You want me to have a conversation with you about what you think will happen in the future?

Maybe listen to what I said which is based on reality that Labour have ruled it out

Honestly it's 2023 it's just weird now

Take it easy and good look with rejoining the single market with Labour ✌

You're the one who started banging on about policies for the GE next year, so you brought the future into it.

I made a flippant comment about how immigration numbers haven't reduced, despite Brexit and 'control'. You then made it about how both major parties have ridiculous and unworkable immigration policies. And I pointed out how irrelevant that is to the structural reality of the UK's relationship with Europe..

And it being 2023 - the UK will remain the subject to decisions made by the EU for as long as we remain in its regulatory orbit, regardless of the year. Hence me talking about structural pressures. That you figured out the 2018 politics of it doesn't make your ignorance of the macroeconomics of it any less glaring.
