Review UK immigration policies, including a cap the number of people arriving

Review UK immigration policies, including a cap the number of people arriving — 236 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

I would like the government to undertake a review into and be transparent about what checks and balances are in place so that this country can manage immigration sensibly. We think the review should consider whether there should be a cap on the number of people arriving.

Additional details

In the year to June 2023, net migration was 900,000. We think this country is not building enough infrastructure to handle 900,000 new people in one year. Glasgow is the UK's third largest city with a population of 622,000. We think the review whether we have the capacity to build the equivalent of 1.5x Glasgow every 12 months.
