L’immigrazione netta nel Regno Unito è esplosa dopo la Brexit

Keir Starmer [says](https://www.theguardian.com/politics/video/2024/nov/28/keir-starmer-on-migration-tories-ran-open-borders-experiment-video) the Tories and Nigel Farage turned Britain into an ‘open-borders experiment’ and that today’s immigration figures were ‘by design’. 

He is right! Tories were desperate to fake GDP growth and used mass migration to fudge the numbers. All aspects of this huge increase resulting from tory policy to artificially boost GDP, and plug gaps in staffing industries with cheap foreign labour.

Brexit means Brexit

Wow, a nationalist and isolationnist policy that fails? Again? We should definitely keep going, we just did not do it enough. Let’s do the same things and it will surely be different.

But hey, no more polish plumbers and lorry drivers.

Now they are from India instead.

I get that this post is a “Brexit bad” post but I have a genuine question – how much of this is Hong Kong and Ukranian people? The government were pretty open about letting them in due to their circumstances.

Edit: I wasn’t implying anything, I was just asking a question. I don’t like to make blind assumptions.

is it because more people come, or UK people are not easily allowed to move to europe anymore. Edit: downvoters: which one is it?

When you point this out to brexitards you get all sorts of excuses…

EU migration wasn’t being measured before Brexit.

You can just read the report here. The biggest increase is due to students who couldn’t come during Covid.

So many people voted on it specifically to curb immigration and all they did was stop immigration of EU citizens all the while everyone else was unaffected. In fact the fact that EU citizens have a much harder time getting to the UK for academic/professional opportunities just means that more people from other places will rush in to fill the gap. Great for those people I guess but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t EU immigrants Brexiteers were voting to stop.

All that which is to say that the UK needs immigrants whether they want to admit it or not. These immigrants are not stealing jobs, they’re taking jobs locals either refuse to do or, very often, employers refuse to offer to locals.

It’s after Boris, really. It’s correlation, rather than causation.

I guess Brexit was why he got in, so in a roundabout way Brexit can be blamed, but it wasn’t inherent to Brexit. Doing Brexit, did not require the UK to adopt open borders with the rest of the world. The UK could have just not done that, and let immigration dry up.

It was a policy choice by Boris and his government to open the floodgates to the third world. He speaks quite openly about it too..

It was a (moronic) attempt to drive down inflation after COVID.

There are sooooooooo many ways to interprate this. Especially since it only shows the net migration. For instance, maybe the difference is due to more people staying in the country as opposed as more going in ?

So, someone pro Brexit might say, Brexit is such a success that British people now longer want to leave the country.

While someone pro Europe might say, Brexit is such a joke, it didn’t even stop immigration.
TL;DR we can’t conclude squat from those numbers.

And the ones’ voting for it will deny it, because people can’t stomach truth these days.

Yes but it did to the EU as well so this post is quite misleading.

So weird watching foreigners try to understand British politics through their own lenses, and get it completely wrong.

No, the immigration boom happened because of specific policy choices that were not caused by Brexit. They both a) could have been made had we not left or b) not been made despite us having left.
The act of us leaving did not necessarily lead to this, it was a conscious act by the government that then got voted out partly because of a massive split in the Right vote that was appalled by it.

The headline may as well be ‘net migration exploded after Boris’

Putin’s plan in progress

The public were warned that Brexit would just replace EU migrants from further afield.

 Similar to every western economy, we have a aging population and need labour to fill in the gaps.

If you go to the UK subs it’s just a ton of people complaining about the figures while unwilling to acknowledge Brexit’s role. 

You couldn’t make this idiocy up lol 

Haha and most of them are from India, Vietnam, Nigeria

You don’t want EU migrants? Cool, have some from Asia and Africa!
