British Borders, British Values

Britain is changing rapidly. This year we have released three papers (read them here, here and here) which detail the revolution in our country’s demographics – alongside massive population growth – that was brought about by a deliberate policy of mass immigration in the last twenty years. The crucial fact to remember about this research is that it shows recent rises […]

We’ve Got Plenty Of Safe Routes

There have been repeated calls this week for the introduction of ‘safe routes’ for asylum seekers to get to the UK as a way of stemming the growing flow of illegal entrants across the Channel. But there are already many ways to come here. We directly resettled more people in the period since 2015 than any […]

We Need A British Bill Of Rights

Commenting, Dr Ben Greening, Executive Director of Migration Watch UK, said: “It is high time for the law to be overhauled and updated for the modern era. It has been far too open to exploitation by those with no right to be in the UK. For example, two thirds of successful appeals against deportation relate to Article […]

What Is The Standard Of Proof Required In Asylum Claims?

The share of asylum application approvals at the initial (pre-appeal) stage has risen dramatically in the past few years. While 34% of decisions at initial stage were grants in the year to September 2017, 64% of decisions at initial stage were grants of asylum or another form of protection in the year to September 2021 (an […]

About Half Of Five Million Net Overseas Immigrants Since 2000 Went To London, The South East And East Of England

In London and the South East, the housing market and transport infrastructure are under huge strain thanks to crippling overpopulation which is being mostly driven by uncontrolled mass immigration. Now – as our border is breached regularly and promiscuously (with government encouragement) by people traffickers making criminal profits by exploiting irregular migrants on the Continent […]

Tragic And Avoidable

With the horrendous, if inevitable, tragedy in the English Channel this week with the loss of 27 lives on Wednesday – our politicians and senior officials have a lot to answer for. The situation has been allowed to take root, while the criminal gangs have been left to develop their vile trade in human cargo. […]

Housing Asylum Claimants In Hotels Costs £70 Million Per Year (or More)

As of 28 February 2021, there were approximately 8,700 people accommodated in under 90 different hotels across the UK. This is to be found in correspondencefrom the Home Office to the House of Commons Home Affairs Select Committee, dated February 2021. (The Home Office confirmed in September that the figure may have dropped slightly but remains in the […]

Our Border Is Not Secure

The news that the Liverpool bomber was a rejected asylum seeker prompted some tough questions this week. The Remembrance Day horror, which could have been much worse, is the latest example of the dangers and deadly risks posed by lax and negligent immigration enforcement policies. It is totally irresponsible and only jeopardises the safety of British citizens. […]

Immigration Data Blind Spots

This week we highlighted yet another instance of the government all but giving up on enforcement of immigration law. A recent paper by the Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration (ICIBI) showed that more than 70,000 migrants who were previously required to report to the immigration authorities have been let off reporting in person over the last eighteen months.
