2/3 British voters believe lies about immigration

[Doug99]

Its not net migration that is worrying people. Its the continuous influx of illegals.

Exactly

"Among Reform voters, four in five thought immigration had grown, and more than three in five (63%) believed it had “increased significantly”...

They of course belong to the 'thick as sh*t' core vote

 

[JP_]

Yes, but this is the only government that has managed to reduce it. And people want to put the old lot back.

 

[Charlie George]

Last year was the biggest on record ever for asylum seekers in UK.

Overall immigration was 69% lower in 2025. It peaked in 2023.

Still 900,000 immigrants.

Left-wing lie.

If it is true that the current Labour Party has reduced immigration in its current tenure, it is insignificant, and a disingenuous claim to make. Labour is the party responsible for bringing them in in the first place.

But less, not more

Did you ever blame the tories, who are now reform, for the problem ?

Why do you think they will be any different if they have history

Maths, or any other activity involving thought for that matter, is not an RWR strong point. They prefer burning torches and pitchforks and hang onto the word of liars.

Shmucks.

Could it be that a lot more people are now classed as asylum seekers rather than illegal immigrants, so the number of the latter naturally goes down?
What's the trend for asylum seekers...More? Less? Same as previous years?

Were at record numbers, the previous highest was in 2002 under Blair, seems like Labour is good news for asylum seekers
And if my maths is wrong on this, i'll await nosealls response with some proof to show otherwise.

A picture of illegal immigrants in the channel and a discussion about net immigration.

Bit of a bate and switch.
Of course illegal immigration via small boats has risen substantially under the current government. Up 38%

Started to watch that BBC ken loach play "Old Oak" on TV last night - all the asylum seekers were women and children, (women who had been nurses looking after british soldiers)

dosnt seem to be many women and children on this boat
