"What is the best-kept secret in British politics? It must be falling immigration. Almost everyone knows that immigration hit record highs... Few realise the last couple of years have seen some of the biggest ever reductions too." @sundersays @EasternEye

The report calls for a more constructive, transparent and humane immigration system that can command public confidence in polarised times. It recommends an annual ‘Migration Day’ in Parliament to improve accountability by reporting progress against a clear Immigration Plan.

The findings show the limitations of an immigration debate focused largely on asylum and competing promises to reduce numbers. If UK is returning to more ‘normal’ levels of net migration – from the unprecedented peak of 900,000+ in YE June 2023 – the debate needs to keep pace.
