For 15 years, prime ministers have stood before the public and made firm promises to bring net migration down — only to watch the numbers rise instead. David Cameron pledged in 2010 to reduce net migration to the “tens of thousands”; today, it sits at more than 700,000, nearly three times the figure it was when Cameron first stepped into Downing Street. Every prime minister since then has repeated the promise and none have delivered.

Successive British governments have been talking up the economic promise of a post-Brexit Britain for years, one in which the UK is free to strike independent trade deals across the globe.

There’s a striking image doing the rounds: Nigel Farage, holding up the Sun’s front page from Tuesday with the phrase “Britain is broken” plastered on it. It’s a huge win for Farage and Reform UK, as those three words are Reform’s campaign slogan.

PM says high immigration hasn't delivered growth in recent years. Genuine question: has there been modelling on what UK output would’ve been in the last few years if we had lower net migration in that period? Would it be the same? Lower? Higher?
