Are these to supply visas to bogus students, or legit overseas students being scammed by fraudsters...?

Given the "Student Visas" scams that keep being uncovered it is valid to question their validity.

150,000 student visas being included in the 'highest level' of immigration would question the validity of that claim

Well I have been proven to be right. What is your problem?

''I commented a long time ago that immigration would not fall''  sounds like a prediction to me of the current numbers .  :shrg:

How can it be hogwash?  The report simply gives the data.  It's a fact.  Are you saying the data is wrong?  If not, the report is not hogwash it's only the conclusions that you have assumed we are drawing from it that you think are hogwash.

Not a surprise to me. I commented a long time ago immigration would not fall the only change would be the colour of the immigrants:-

UK migration: Net migration from outside EU hits 'highest level'

18 minutes ago



Net migration to the UK from countries outside the European Union has risen to its highest level for 45 years, the Office for National Statistics says.



Figures show an estimated 282,000 more non-EU citizens came to the UK than left in 2019, the highest since the information was first gathered in 1975.



The ONS says a rise in students from China and India has driven this.



In contrast, the number of people arriving from EU countries for work has "steadily fallen".

The colour of the migrants is irrelevant . What is important for me is that migrants have a right to be here and are contributing to our society . Of course with the Worlds population increasing   so will the number of people moving about like students seeking the finest education .  The report is basically hogwash .

And a uk education qualification post brexit is recognised where in europe in january ?

I hope it is but may not get agreed the way UK negotiators are acting

The ONS data is not "hogwash." The highest net migration into Britain for 45 years. (Which does not include the illegals not being detected.)
