What's behind British political opposition to immigration?
Immigration is a central theme in British politics with the Conservative government taking a hard line against people seeking to stay in the country.
The opposition Labour Party says it too wants to reduce the number of arrivals, but with different plans.
Yet, despite the negative political climate, net migration in 2022 stood at more than 600,000 people, a record level.
Why is there such political opposition to immigration in Britain?

Christa Rottensteiner, Chief of Mission, International Organization for Migration
Fizza Qureshi, CEO, Migrants' Rights Network

    The US promised Special Immigrant Visas to many thousands of Afghans who worked for the US government. I don't see what obligation we have to adopt other Afghans. They, like many other people around the world, live in a poor country under authoritarian rule, but their lives aren't being threatened in Afghanistan. The ones who make it to places like Mexico en route to the US are almost always better educated Afghans of means. They could make contributions to rebuilding Afghanistan, but will and compete with other low income people for government aid and housing in America. I know I sound harsh, but it's true.

    The current economic and humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan is caused by US sanctions and US freezing of Afghan bank assets. Lift the sanctions and give Afghan people THEIR money and assets back and most won't need to flee. Journalists need to start telling the truth about what the US is doing, they are trying to cripple Afghanistan. USA is an evil evil country and people.
