A big leap in immigration from outside the EU is evidence of the strength of the UK economy, Theresa May says.
The latest figures show 283,000 more people moved to the UK than left the country in the year to last September – almost three times the government target of 100,000.
The rise was fuelled by 261,000 non-EU arrivals, the highest figure since 2004, outweighing a fall in EU net migration to the lowest level since 2009.

Nice meme, Theresa. Campaign to reduce migration numbers, whilst actually providing a system that enables more migrants to come in. As Dianne Abbott says in the article,

“Its policy is not really about reducing numbers, but allows it to maintain a constant campaign against migration and migrants.”

Let migrants in
Voters complain about migrants
Say you're against migrants to win votes
Go back to step 1.
