The government’s new White Paper, “Restoring Control over the Immigration System”, is the latest offering in attempts to reduce the scale of immigration. As with all other offerings, it talks a good game, but is unacceptably vague especially on details of the proposals or the target number of annual net migration. Only the Technical Annex is prepared to put a number on this issue, but recognises the impacts will be seriously limited, conceding that it will reduce annual inflows by roughly 100,000.

January 30, 2025Migration Watch Chairman Alp Mehmet said: Official figures from the ONS have revealed projected population growth by mid-2032 of almost five million people and of almost ten million people by 2047. This astonishing increase will be entirely due to immigration and the children of migrants. The projections are based on the assumption that net migration will fall to an annual 340,000, from 2029, which is unlikely without radical policy change.

Dear EditorIt is appalling that MSF is being forced to suspend its operations in Port-au-Prince after being present for over 30 years due to violence and threats towards its staff. Violence against medical personnel is completely unacceptable particularly from those in authority such as the police. The BMA views this as part of an alarming global trend where medical personnel are perceived as legitimate targets in times of conflict and civil unrest, in direction contravention of international law.
