MWUK - An introduction to MigraionWatch UK


 

An Introduction to MigrationWatch UK

While we appreciate the valuable contribution that many earlier immigrants have made, we believe that the numbers have now become too great. In 2004 net foreign immigration reached 342,000 a year, far higher than at any time in our history. In 2005 it fell slightly to 292,000.

Our concern is widely shared by the public. According to recent polls, immigration is rated second only to crime as the most important issue facing Britain today and 76% want to see an annual limit imposed.

We set out our thinking more fully in the following papers:

1. Outline of the problem
