Even last year’s immigration numbers were mind-boggling

Ahead of next week’s figures, we reveal how bad it was last year

Montage © Facts4EU.Org 2023

Whether it’s 600,000, 700,000, or 950,000, it was already way too high last year

On Thursday next week the Office for National Statistics is due to release the latest net immigration numbers. In the last year Brexit Facts4EU published 10 reports on this subject. Last year net immigration soared to a staggering 504,000, according to the ONS.

For years we have exposed the truth – and have been ‘shadow-banned’ for it on social media many times. These days Elon Musk owns Twitter and life is a lot freer there. The subject of immigration is mainstream news, finally. Please don’t believe some broadcasters claiming exclusivity on this subject – we have repeatedly reported on this for many years.

Bill Gates’s spotty teenagers who patrol the internet as his 'Staatspolizei' might still shadow-ban us on Facebook, but the simple fact is that this topic is now out in the open.

Ahead of the latest figures being released by the Office for National Statistics next week, we give readers a perspective. Below is a summary of the figures available last year. These were already bad enough.

Finally, here is how the UK’s population has exploded since Tony Blair’s administration

In the 1970s, prior to the United Kingdom joining the ‘Common Market’ or ‘EEC’, population growth was relatively flat. It then started rising, and took off after former Prime Minister Tony Blair came to power in 1997.

The UK’s population has increased by 8 million (13.5%) in just 20 years.

The annual increases became dramatic following the enlargement of the EU in 2004, when Mr Blair allowed unlimited immigration from the new (and much poorer) countries from Eastern Europe who joined the bloc that year. Immigration then took off again in 2007, when Romania and Bulgaria joined. The UK was one of the very few EU members to grant citizens from those countries immediate entry.

Putting aside our usual caveats that neither the Office for National Statistics nor the Government really has a clue about the numbers of people actually in the United Kingdom, below we present the latest official figures on population growth.

Observations

Here’s a simple idea for the PM which would guarantee him votes at the next general election

Put caps on the numbers of each category of immigrants : study routes, work routes, family reasons, and other reasons (eg Ukrainians, Hong Kong residents, etc). Ensure the total equals less than 100,000. End some of the ludicrous rules such as allowing foreign students to bring their families with them. Then the Conservatives could finally say they had reduced immigration “to the tens of thousands”, which has been promised since David Cameron’s 2010 administration.

Secondly, deport all illegal migrants immediately. We are facing a massive crisis where our health service is broken, schools are overflowing, GP and dental surgeries are blocked, our local infrastructure is creaking in every way, and the housing shortage is so bad we will soon have to concrete over the national parks and build 1 million homes per year, at the rate we’re going.

Rishi Sunak will not do either of these things, of course. And in not doing so he will lose the next election. The Conservative Party is ruthless and he will be gone within months.

The United Kingdom now has the right to set its own immigration policy, after decades of having to obey the EU’s. Seven years after the country voted to leave, it’s high time the PM started to use our new-found freedoms.

Your paragraph headed "Here’s a simple idea for the PM which would guarantee him votes at the next general election" May well be accurate.
However, in the likely event of a Labour Gov. coming to power. Do you think Starmer and co. would do any of the things you suggest. Or do you think they would carry on exactly the same, or indeed make things worse.

Obviously a high profile issue during the Brexit campaign. Migration from outside the EU is nearly double that from within the EU. Migration from outside the EU could have been more tightly controlled long before the referendum.
.
What happened to Turkey, Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia joining the EU, a significant scare story days before the referendum.
.
Before anyone tries to label my comment re migration from outside the EU as racists, forget it, you couldn't be further from the truth, my comment is in relation to the lies of Brexit.
.
This piece covers migration in but doesn't include out. A lot of people returned to the EU after Brexit, partly due to the Covid period. A lot of east europeans returned to their countries in this period and we have seen recently the hospitality industry complaining about the lack of workers many of whom came from Eastern Europe, but not necessarily to settle, similar to how many people move to London until they want to raise a family.

Sparky.

As ever, is Brexit the problem? The EU follows a hair width, if not level behind Brexit Britain.

Why does the UK need another level of corruption above that which the UK has already?

This problem has not been fixed, simply because after 40 odd years of membership of the EU, parliament has forgotten how to do stuff - the important stuff being done in Brussels. The solution is, to clear out the parliamentary dross, and replace them with doers and fixers from the private sector, with private sector experience of doing stuff. That will take ten years or two terms.

'Sparky' the figures are referred to as 'net' Therefore include departures.

Scare story?
.
Serbia became a candidate for accession in 2012.
It wasn't until 2023 that Serbia lost it's enthusiasm for joining the EU
.
Despite tensions with the EU, Turkey is still formally a candidate for accession.
Since 2016 accession negotiations have stalled, that's around the time of the EU referendum
.
Albania was granted candidate status in 2014, negotiations are ongoing
.
North Macedonia was granted candidate status in 2004
.
Membership negotiations for Montenegro accession began in 2012
.
And of course the EU has been pouring billions into their economies in order to facilitate their respective accessions, much of it provided by the UK taxpayer pre the referendum.

Well we've finally discovered who is financing vote leave campaigner Aaron Banks.
.
It's none other than the Guardian's very own 'Carol Codswallop', and to the tune of £2 million no less.
.
Now there's a conundrum for the EU in exile.
Do they dish out the dosh to her crowd funding appeal, full in the knowledge that it's just going to end up in the 'hated' Banks' pocket?
Or
Do they leave their poster girl to go bankrupt?
.
To paraphrase a Neil Sedaka song
"Oh Carol, you are such a fool"!

We are conflating "visas issued" and "immigration".
These figures are not comparable with previous immigration statistics which were based on surveys at airports. People were asked, "do you intend to return home later", and if they said yes they were not counted as an immigrant.
So it is completely different.
