UK migration statistics: Britons wrongly assume most arrivals are irregular
Update: 2025-11-27
Description
The British Government has released its latest statistics on immigration—which is now the top issue for many voters. A new poll indicates nearly half of Britons think there are more migrants in the UK illegally than legally. Yet, the data suggests their fears may be based on misunderstanding. These misconceptions, along with language and imagery, may be distorting the debate. Al Jazeera’s Charlie Angela reports from the United Kingdom.
