Illegal migration is a minor problem, about 25000 people have entered the UK illegally so far this year, and many of those are seeking asylum having come from places like Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Legal migration has increased enormously since we left the EU, as we have an ageing population and lack skilled workers in many areas.
Hopefully we can have a grown up conversation about migration, even with Farage hectoring from the other side of the house, now, because if we want economic growth then attracting immigrants is a key part of achieving that.
