Net migration could fall to zero, and visa rules could make life for migrants even more absolute hellish, but the UK media frame of “migration numbers remain (too) high” will never die.

New insights from the World Values Survey UK data while the Labour government thinks about extending the voting age to 16: younger respondents are significantly more concerned about unfair election coverage in the media, bribery and the influence of richer people on the electoral process.
Graph. Title reads: younger people are significantly more likely to see elections as unfairer, especially their coverage in the news, and have significantly higher concerns about bribery, and the capacity of the rich to "buy" elections.
