No I'm not.
The rate of immigration is falling.
Total immigration is not falling.

Just like the rate of inflation falling does not mean prices are not increasing.

Perhaps better clarity on the words used might help.
So when do you start counting? The final submergence when the Straight of Dover was formed, or is it easier to start with the French in 1066?

Here's a very typical bit of press coverage, and we know exactly what it means: it means reducing the number of people immigrating by 90%, not reducing the number of immigrants in the UK by 90% (even if Farage would, deep down, like to do that).

They tend to talk about 'net migration'. Lots of data and words here.

Net migration is just so woke.

He's has already been given the news the British people aren't accepting his threat by making 𝕏 and Grok number 1 in downloads in the UK.
Every time I think you can't be that stupid, you surprise me.
Look closely Andy, I know you can read. What does Musk say? He says X is number one for News Download and Grok for Productivity.

No! Put it back in your trousers - we haven't finished yet.

The way this works is that both the Apple Store and the Play Store categorise apps by all sorts of different categories. If you advertise X as being for social media, news, image sharing, video sharing and macramé then it will appear in all those lists. it doesn't matter what you downloaded it for. So if your app is listed against 37 categories then it's really easy to get listed as first in all of those categories because your app has been downloaded.

So it doesn't matter that X is number one for news. That doesn't mean it is the most used news app. It just means that of all the things listed in the news category it has the most downloads.

Same for Grok. People aren't downloading it for productivity. It might be listing at #1 for productivity but it would also be #1 in the Kiddie Porn Creation category, the #Abuse women you know category and the #I love fascist dictators category if those were categories.

This is just propaganda from Musk. It's aimed at stupid people.

As you were.
