Overseas students come here, often for several years and then return to their homes. They keep UK universities functioning as they pay double the fees of UK students. Not only this, they bring large amounts of money into other sectors: by renting, by buying food, and then very often, as they tend to be well-off, doing a lot of shopping. When they return home, after benefitting our economy and education sector, they spread positive ideas about British society and education. Why are they included in the migration figures?

I would seriously question your claims ‘take more in benefits’ vs economic production increases of migrants but one thing that cannot be disputed is the utter mismanagement of the country and immigration by this lousy government. We left the EU which simply stopped European workers from working here temporarily or permanently and ‘swapped’ our requirement for labour import to those outside of the EU, particularly in health services, hospitality and healthcare. There was also a provision under the EU agreement to return migrants to the first country of entry and this is no longer available under Brexit. In addition, our lack of training and developing skills for workers has meant lowest production levels in Europe and a continuing need for importing labour. Beating up on people in boats is simply a way of distracting the population from all our other structural problems created by this short-sighted, incompetent government.

Skilled immigrants which is very significant are paying equal taxes and contributing equal NI but they do not receive any Public Funding no Pension benefits and other such benefits. Unskilled workers are anyways not earning upto what British tax system qualifies for them to pay taxes - neither they have similar benefits. The reason for higher immigration is because of poor political maturity, severe lack of geo-politics and policies, depleting treasury (because now they cannot loot any other country) --- appalling productivity of British people to put efforts in building the nation but rather to strike all year long and demanding "benefits" which the country cannot provide. Naturally, immigrants from other countries have to be brought in to do those jobs and keep this ailing nation afloat.

How does having a UK work visa translate into becoming a migrant, i.e. someone who then has a permanent right to remain? It would be useful to know how many of the 754,000 are, in fact, permanent migrants. Japan does a similar thing as the UK with nurses & care workers from The Philippines.

Why are students included in migration figures when most of them don’t stay when they finish study?

Utterly unsustainable for a country the size of the UK .

Tory Britain is addicted to the sugar rush of foreign students (who pay higher fees for the same courses) and to cheap labour that has been trained elsewhere. There is zero willingness to invest on training/re-training local people for those jobs and then the many members of the party who are property owners stand to benefit from increased competition for housing.

The numbers tell us we were far better off before Brexit, the numbers don't lie..... Unlike the Tories. #BetterBeforeBrexit

Uk needs to stop illegal immigration, refugees and asylum seekers. Especially the muslim ones. Rest of the immigration is fine and needed. Also, most students and workers return after completing their studies. Those who choose to stay, stay because of work reasons. Legal immigration has been and continues to be extremely beneficial.

Hong Kong people who come to the UK bring a lot of money in and start working as soon as possible (from lower end jobs to higher end ones) So I'm pretty sure they generally have a positive effect to the UK. They generally don't increase crime or act in a bad way. They are the ideal immigrant in my eyes. Hardworking, no trouble makers, willing to do any type of job, willing to integrate/contribute into society.

But doesn't the study visa also entitle people to work also? Or they convert the study visa into a work visa? If so, then all of those in the "study" visa program should be considered economic migrants not students.

So this is legal migration?

I'm a life scientist working in the UK, who arrived from France 7 years ago (literally just before the Brexit referendum). My sector relies heavily on immigration as there is simply not enough British undergraduate/PhD. However this is the same in every other country: science relies on immigration. This was so set the scene. Before the Brexit, a lot of the applications received were from EU countries taking advantage of the VISA-free system. Now, the EU applications are nearly non-existent due to the increased difficulties and risks (Visa-based system). For non EU, however, the opposite happened thanks to the point-based system So, in a word, it has created a more channelled immigration system. Easier for the rest of the word but harder for EU people since they benefitted from an "advantageous" pre Brexit system However, I will say something that will probably hurt some people, but, in my sector, although we are getting the same number of applications, the quality has strongly diminished as the qualified workforce from the EU was of extremely good value but was replaced by something of "average" quality! All in all, numbers are numbers and it is important to keep that in mind.

It's the lies as they promised to reduce migration! So obviously the government of the day either has a hidden agenda, or has no control whatsoever. My bet is both. We all know that the civil 'service' and the judiciary run the country, and they are all massively pro-immigration. So what the general population think is not important to them.

Hate?! Not wanting to be a minority in your own country is not hate.

Another factor is that UK citizens cant leave and live in the EU like they used to. This is net so its the difference between the ins and outs. If people can come for work to plug job shortages and then UK citizens cant relocate in Europe like before Brexit…its a perfect storm

Number of migrants have increased BUT no one is talking about the how much money this has pulled into the UK for visa fees and renewal fees which has exponentially raised too. All in all this migration is a money-printing machine for UK. Why no one is talking about this? A Family of 4 will end up paying £15000 for Indefinite leave to remain Visa and this is expected to rise too...

What about revenue from migration

We need a cap/quota attached to every single visa category. They won't do it though. The reality is that the government loves immigration, the more the better. They're just trying to distract us with talk of dealing with it until people get preoccupied with something else.

Because we have an aging demographic and some jobs EU citizens did now are being replaced by people from outside the EU. Plus the govt gets some of its economic growth through basic population growth.

"Migration rise: What do the numbers tell us?" That we're screwed!!!

What does it tell us? 1. We have LOTS of Foreign Students SUBSIDISING the Excessive Number of Universities that we have 2. Illegal Immigrants are a minority of the massive surge 3. There are jobs that EU Citizens performed in the UK that are now employing "foreigners INCLUDING from the EU - previously NOT classed as immigrants" 4. Illegal Immigrants that Cross the Channel from the EU can LEGALLY be sent back to the EU, mainly France 5. The Government is reluctant to send these people back to the EU - Q. WHY? 6. There is a HIDDEN/SECRET deal that is allowing the Illegals to stay 7. LEGAL Immigrants come here to WORK!

Would be great to see a similar graph that shows British doctors and nurses leaving for Australia to work in health and care

I like that they break it down. I wonder how many of the study visas are legitimate though.

UK's economy is supported by Tuition fees and language Tests. Average student pays £40k yearly into the fiscus.

Uk with its maritime borders have a really healthy immigration,studies + work result in a selective immigration wich is very good for the country rather than the illegal immigration process.

No. Foreign workers need to apply for working visa in order to come to work in U.K. To get a working visa, your salary must meet the salary threshold set by Home Office. They set the threshold for different positions in different industries and it is based on the 25th percentile of earnings on that specific position.
