Britain has another epileptic fit about net migration.

Then we dig into the figures and discover that the top two contributors are short term students and healthcare professionals.

That’s right, we’re being sent into a spin about international students, who contribute over £40 billon to the UK economy annually.

And the other segment? Yes, that’s how the health and social care sector is addressing its staffing crisis: by recruiting large numbers from overseas, as it always has.

Don’t like it? Then train as a doctor, physiotherapist, allied health professional, mental health nurse, dentist or care worker, and put yourself forward to plug the humongous staffing shortfall.

Or, well, carry on trolling online, demanding your country back. The choice is yours.
