Immigration minister: Net migration is far too high
Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick says net migration is “far too high” after newly published figures for 2022 showed around 606,000 more people are estimated to have moved to the UK than have left.
The Office for National Statistics said factors contributing to relatively high levels of immigration over the past 18 months include people coming to the UK from non-EU countries for work, study, and for humanitarian purposes, including those arriving from Ukraine and Hong Kong.

Ukrainian forces have reportedly launched a fresh ground incursion into Russia’s Kursk region, targeting border areas including Tetkino and Novy Put. Russia claims to have repelled the assault using drones and heavy firepower, releasing footage of Ukrainian vehicles under attack. Russian officials allege Ukraine deployed 250 troops and over 15 heavy vehicles in the operation. Ukraine denies claims that all its forces were pushed back, as tensions rise days after Putin declared the region recaptured.

A top Chinese official has blasted President Trump’s Hong Kong tariffs, calling them “arrogant and shameless.” Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, further mocked the U.S. by referring to Americans as “peasants,” warning of a backlash against Trump’s trade war tactics. The insult follows a heated exchange after U.S. VP J.D. Vance’s earlier comment on China. As tensions rise, both countries have unleashed new tariffs, escalating the economic war with global consequences. Will diplomacy return—or will this spiral into chaos?
