Britain's net migration is expected to drop to about 120,000 this year, the lowest figure recorded outside the Covid pandemic since 1997. Tougher visa rules have cut the number of new arrivals, while many former students, workers and British citizens have been leaving the country. Official forecasters at the Office for Budget Responsibility expect the total to creep back up to around 230,000 by 2031.
