Read a summary of stories about immigration in the national and international media.
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.
