    Brexit, great for reducing net migration

    UK migration: Fewer EU arrivals but overall figure stays the same - BBC News

    "EU net migration was 74,000 in the year to the end of June 2018, while non-EU net migration was 248,000"

    "The number of EU citizens moving to the UK has continued to drop, but more people coming from elsewhere means the overall migration rate is unchanged"

    I bet all those who voted for control of our borders, and to stop those pesky EU types from coming to the UK, are well chuffed

      Really? You saying immigration, FoM, and control of our borders, was not a reason idiots voted Brexit? And you lot, now you know the UK economy will be worse off under every Brexit scenario, now claim the economy also wasn't a consideration. Pray tell, what did you vote for?

      Not:
      - Immigration
      - The Economy
      - Hence can't be Trade (as trade is linked to the economy, and the EU can get better trade deals than we can on our own)

      Was the only thing you voted for the rights of fishermen to trawl the North Sea until it's devoid of life?

        So UK can totally control non-EU immigration but fails to do so, no doubt due to evil EUSSR ECJ meanies...

                Next it will be non-EU fruit pickers and chicken stuffers...
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Chin up. If they lower the bar far enough they may even invite you back. But only if we run out of traffic cones!!

                    Net migration stays the same. Instead of white people brown people are now coming, I'm sure that's exactly what the racist brexit voters wanted
