14:41Now PlayingJames O'Brien unpacks the data on falling net migration, the wider context behind young adults leaving the UK and why some commentators in the UK media are framing these trends in misleading ways.
Net migration - the difference between the number of people arriving and leaving the UK - fell in the year to June 2025 to 204,000, the latest Office for National Statistics figures show.
Among the leading causes of the drop are the fewer non-EU nationals arriving to work or study in the UK and the "continued, gradual increase" of people leaving the country.
