7 Net migration 'could be underestimated', campaigners say

Summary:

Campaigners for reduced immigration to the UK is warning officials could be underestimating net migration. The UK already accepted they undercounted the number of immigrants from countries which joined the EU after 2004. The ONS figured that the number of people moving to the UK mined the number leaving had proved to be inaccurate given the last ten years. The population of England and Wales grew by 464.000 more than the ONS estimated. The government doesn’t want to interfere and vowed net migration would fall to under 100.000 per year by 2015. This means they will come in action when it is 2015, when it is probably already unmanageable.

Opinion:

I think it is very foolish of the government the way they underestimate this topic. To me it seems very important, maybe also because I live in the Netherlands and immigration is here grown in high rates. The culture of a country doesn’t really match with that of other countries or populations. Even if you want it to, some foreigners  will give it a try to adjust to a new country such as the UK, but in the end foreigners do not really fit in another country. I see it with my own eyes here in the Netherlands. So I think it is important that the government opens its eyes too.
