The ‘No to 70 million’ e-petition has now over 100,000 supporters. In response to this support the co-Chairs of the Cross Party Group on Balanced Migration, Frank Field and Nicholas Soames, said:

“This is a remarkable response from the public – 100,000 thousand signatures within a week. It underlines what our Balanced Migration group has been saying for three years - namely that there is pent up frustration at the failure of the political class to get a grip of mass immigration.

"We will now take the matter up with the Backbench Business Committee to secure a debate on the petition’s call for a sharp reduction in immigration to levels close to balanced migration. Nothing short of this will stabilise the population.”
