Government's Commitment on Immigration
28th July 2010
In response to the Prime Minister's interview on Radio 4's Today programme this morning, Frank Field and Nicholas Soames said:
"The Prime Minister's tough statement on the Coalition Government's commitment to bring net immigration down to the tens of thousands is excellent news. If this is to be achieved, whilst retaining the flexibility that our economy needs, we must ensure that economic migration no longer confers an almost automatic right to settle here. We need to import some skills, but we should also be training our own workforce." [More]

FACTS
According to Government figures, immigration at current levels will add about 7 million to the population of England by 2031 - equivalent to 7 cities the size of Birmingham.
In 2009 England is expected to overtake Holland as the most crowded country in Europe.
According to Government statistics, a new home for immigrants needs to be built every six minutes.
Immigration directly added a million people to the UK's population in just five years - 2003 to 2007.
There was a net inflow of 2.3 million people to the UK between 1991 and 2006. 8% came from the new East European members of the EU.
