 Christians enjoined to seek God's face desist from negotiating one's destiny with the devil By Ezumezu Nonyelum  Christians enjoined to seek God's face desist from negotiating one's destiny with the devil. Converts encouraged to refrain from secret sin that deprives them from mercy of God. The Officiating Priest of St. Michael Parish Awkuzu, Rev. Fr.

NET MIGRATION FELL BY ALMOST 50% IN 2024 TO 431,000, ONS SAYS. (PHOTO).


 Net migration fell by almost 50% in 2024 to 431,000, ONS says


Net migration fell by almost 50% in 2024, compared to the previous year, the Office for National Statistics has said.


In a report out this morning, it says:


Long-term net migration is down by almost 50%. The number of people immigrating minus the number of people emigrating is provisionally estimated to be 431,000 in year ending (YE) December 2024, compared with 860,000 a year earlier.


This change is driven by a decrease in immigration from non-EU+ nationals, where we are seeing reductions in people arriving on work- and study-related visas, and an increase in emigration over the 12 months to December 2024, especially people leaving who originally came on study visas once pandemic travel restrictions to the UK were eased.


The provisional estimate for total long-term immigration for YE December 2024 is 948,000, a decrease of almost a third from the revised YE December 2023 estimate of 1,326,000 and the first time it has been below 1 million since YE March 2022.


The provisional estimate for total long-term emigration for YE December 2024 is 517,000, an increase of around 11% compared with the previous year (466,000). Emigration is now at a similar level to YE June 2017.
