Politics latest: Starmer vows to end Tories' 'open borders experiment' - as 'landmark' deal announced

Keir Starmer has vowed to end the Tories' "open borders experiment" after new stats show net migration to the UK fell by 20% in the year to June 2024, but from what was a record high of more than 900,
The article from Sky News discusses the political reactions to the latest net migration figures in the UK, which have hit a record high under the Conservative government. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is holding a news conference to address these figures, criticizing the government's handling of immigration. The data shows that net migration reached 606,000 in the year ending December 2022, significantly higher than previously anticipated. Starmer is expected to highlight the government's failure to control immigration as promised, especially in light of Brexit, which was partly campaigned on the basis of taking back control of UK borders. The article also mentions the government's response, with Home Secretary Suella Braverman defending the figures by pointing to global events like the war in Ukraine and the situation in Hong Kong, while also promising new measures to reduce net migration. This has sparked a debate on immigration policy, with opposition parties and some Conservative MPs expressing concern over the government's strategy and its implications for public services and community cohesion.
