What chutzpah! Farage has the gall to complain “We are getting poorer” without a scintilla of shame that Brexit has played a key role in our impoverishment @bbclaurak.bsky.social

It is why I have stopped watching BBCQT. It is no longer a forum for open debate; now it’s just misinformation with no challenge by the chair.
“My 2023 open letter to the BBC about Question Time, read by more than 300,000 people in 144 countries, was widely reported in the media. It even informed questions posed to the BBC’s director general Tim Davie at a parliamentary select committee.”
The media’s dangerous embrace of Farage: a critical look at BBC’s Question Time
The BBC’s platforming of Nigel Farage on Question Time promotes divisive and misleading rhetoric, distorting the debate on immigration

It just goes to show that immigration is not as damaging as many would have us believe.
Since Brexit, we are recruiting many health and care workers from countries like Nigeria and Pakistan, which have serious shortages in those occupations.
Net migration: time to face the real facts
The last government ignored difficult issues, and allowed incompatible policies on migration. The real challenges are much more difficult.
