as posted by the channelLBC listener Joe asks the Cross Question panel:
"Was Brexit sold on lies, given that it's not reduced immigration?"
The Office for National Statistics has projected that almost entirely as a result of net migration, the UK population will increase by almost 5 million by the year 2032 to 72.5 million. The number of migrants from the EU has also increased after Brexit.
Does that mean the referendum was based on a false premise? Iain Dale's Cross Question panel debate (from left to right):
James Starkie, former adviser to Priti Patel.
Zoe Gardner, immigration policy expert.
Iain Dale, LBC presenter.
Kirsty Blackman, SNP MP.
