net migration reached record levels in 2022 and 2023. that's the difference between the number of people arriving and leaving. and when the government talks about immigration, the issue of small boats dominates. today, the home office has launched this social media campaign targeting vietnamese nationals, setting out the risks of crossing the channel. you might have got the impression that it's small boats that have driven a record rise in net migration. they haven't. while the issue is important, in the context of overall immigration, the numbers are tiny. at that time, suella braverman was home secretary. until rishi sunak sacked she now says the prime minister had not necessarily assumed that legal migration was an important issue for the british people. and she makes this claim. i struggled myself as home secretary to even have a meaningful conversation with him about it. i was left to written correspondence on several occasions throughout a period of 12 months, putting forward policy proposals, but he refused to talk to me. number ten declined to comment on this. in 2019, the conservatives committed to reducing immigration, and despite a new visa system introduced after brexit, the opposite happened. professor brian bell is chair of the government's independent migration advisory committee. we've offered humanitarian schemes to the ukraine and hong kong citizens. we've increased the number of international students and we've increased the number of workers, particularly in the health and social care sector. they are all the result of deliberate policy by the government. yes, i bought the place in 2002... many in the care sector welcomed the government's decisions, including raj sehgal. if we didn't have international recruitment, we didn't - have the staff that we've got, i think we would probably - be closed by now. i struggled myself as home secretary to even have a meaningful conversation with him about it. i was left to written correspondence

is the hong kongers, the ukrainians, the angle of tarmac afghans, the gaps we need to fill in social care and schools, it is a much bigger problem than many voters could possibly appreciate. do the conservatives have a plan? they accuse labour of not having a plan. they have a plan of the specific issue? the? not having a plan. they have a plan of the specific issue?— of the specific issue? they

particularly from the health service in the care sector to allow them, the workers they cannot recruit from the population already here on these islands. it runs up against a political question. the focus is on the drama of the small boats, but frankly this is hideously embarrassing for the prime minister, hideously embarrassing when the conservatives made an issue of this in the 2019 general election by promising notjust stop the boats but to reduce immigration. it was the dominant factor, i believe, in the dominant factor, i believe, in the yes vote in the 2016 brexit referendum, in scotland the vote was two to one the other way. there is anxiety about the very nature of what it meant to be english, and that concern was tied up with anxieties over immigration, and the conservatives and to some extent in response to the labour party, it was said there would be a degree of control and curbs and constraint, and that has not happened. it is not having for two reasons. one that the tide of emigration, the numbers arriving in substantial degrees to these islands, and to the fact that many of these individuals are welcome because they are doing productive and usefuljobs when they get here. nonetheless, very embarrassing for the pm. find get here. nonetheless, very embarrassing for the pm. and that is what has a lot _ embarrassing for the pm. and that is

., , that fight. a good point not 'ust in this country at this moment. a related issue, british farming. british farmers have been demonstrating here in the capital tonight. a convoy of around 50 tractors made its way through central london towards the houses of parliament in westminster. 0ur reporter meghan 0wen sent us this update from the protest. well, this is what you get when over 100 tractors make their way through london rush hour. now, farmers from across the uk have gathered from kent, from wales, from northern ireland, and of all generations. i've actually spoken to young farmers who are worried about their future. i've also spoken to farmers who have been in the industry for decades who are really, really worried about their livelihoods. they're protesting against a number of things, but particularly cheap food imports and tightening environmental restrictions. it comes after a number of eu countries and countries around the world have also staged their own farming protests. but this is the first time in a while that farmers have taken to the streets of central london in their tractors. now, the government says, "we firmly back our farmers, we put agriculture at the forefront of any any deals we negotiate," but i think from the sounds of it and the looks of it here, farmersjust don't accept that in the uk. they've got slogans saying, "we can't feed you any more," saying, "back british farming". they're honking their horns hoping that the people in westminster will hear them. according to one farmer, this is one last chance to save british farming stop by there is nothing quite like a tractor horn. at the risk of encouraging you to say i told you so, the problem that a lot of these british farmers talk about post—brexit is exporting things is much more difficult and importing to the uk doesn't seem to have changed from their perspective and of course, they have concerns over the government would say andrew farming budget is being

within british farming for some time in the price of food and the price they get from the supermarkets, the food campaign sustains release of this is back in 2022 that uk farmers made less than a penny profit from each unit of food produced in a loaf of bread is worth .0 9p for a serial farmer and the £2 50 block of chatter, you cannot sustain a living on those sorts of margins, can you please

environmentalists which say it's big of a restricted and i think as long as you have a retail sector which defaults to its competition on price rather than quality, it is going to be a degree of challenge and i very much take the point that there has to be trade and imports and universal self—sufficiency is not realistic or indeed in most cases a desirable objective but there is a degree of lines that are required as well if it is right that we should try and restrict imports of energy in order to be a degree of control over our own situation and if that is even more true with regard to supply and i have a degree of sympathy with those who save you squeeze us and squeeze us, 0k, you'll end up solely dependent on imports and trade challenges and innocently ironic to see them making

settled as we head into the bank holiday weekend, with lighter winds, a lot of dry weather around, and it could feel a bit warmer, too. but lots of wet and windy weather to get to before then. this was northern ireland earlier on today — a freshening southeasterly wind. there'll be further spells of rain as we head through the rest of the working week. it'll be blustery, and temperatures will be at or below the seasonal average. some of the showers could even turn out to be wintry over the tops of the hills. and we've seen some wintriness today across the hills of scotland there, and this warm front gradually pushing further northwards and eastwards. a cold front pretty much stationary, giving some further outbreaks of rain across devon and cornwall, and into southern and western wales through the night. most of that rain cools off into the north sea. still some wintry showers across northern and eastern scotland — watch out for some icy stretches here into tomorrow morning, it is going to be a cold night. blustery up towards the north of scotland, the northern isles. further south, a mixture of cloud and clear spells. temperatures between 5—7 celsius, so a frost—free start to the day here. now, on tuesday, a lot of dry weather around. we see most of that rain clear off into the north sea — where will still be some wintry showers across northern and eastern scotland. windy across the northern isles, our cold front brings further outbreaks of rain into central, southern england, stretching up to the west midlands perhaps, and into eastern wales. temperatures peaking between 5—12 celsius north to south. and then, on wednesday, perhaps some early brightness across parts of east anglia — it's a very windy day with low pressure out towards the west. strong, gusty winds for irish sea coast, more organised bands of showers tracking northwards and eastwards. some of the showers possibly wintry over the higher ground of wales and the southwest of england. it's a bit milder across scotland on wednesday, but a bit cooler further south. and low pressure dominant, too, on thursday — there'll be further heavy rain as we head through the small hours across much of england and wales. again, bands of organised showers and brisk south—westerly winds, too, particularly towards english channel coasts, possibly severe gales here, so a very windy day on thursday. by the time we get to good friday, though, it should turn drier, especially in the afternoon, some showers at first, and temperatures will start to rise. so, for the easter bank holiday weekend, a lot of dry weather around, maybe some mist and fog. it will be feeling a little warmer. bye— bye. tonight at 10:00, for the first time, the us does not block a united nations vote calling for an immediate ceasefire in gaza the draft resolution has been adopted... the vote also called for the release of hostages held by hamas — but israel has now cancelled a scheduled visit to the white house. suspects in the moscow concert hall attack are in court. president putin says radical islamists are to blame, but that ukraine is behind them. cody fisher — stabbed to death over a petty incident in 2022 — two men are found guilty of his murder. this is all about election interference. this is all biden run. donald trump on his criminal trial — a date is set for april 15 — on charges relating to alleged hush money paid to a porn star and the mission to find out whether so—called ghost particles really exist.
