As far as I know, the immigration levels aren't hugely different to (the majority of) England, there is an issue with birth/death rate that means the population is stagnating / aging (aging populations are a problem) and we're just not popping out enough sprogs, so higher immigration is the only answer.
The stats for England are of course skewed by the London area, which has higher immigration than the rest of the UK by some margin. That's just down to being a "Global City". People aren't migrating "to the UK", they're migrating "to London".
