An estimated one in seven people living in the UK today was born outside the country.More than three million people - roughly a third of the immigrant population - come from Commonwealth countries such as India, Jamaica, Australia and Nigeria.A further three-and-a-half million come from the European Union - a number which has grown more quickly since 2001 than the number from the rest of the world, as free movement has expanded to more countries.
Northern Ireland does not produce estimates broken down by local authority, but it is estimated there that fewer than one in 10 of the population was born abroad.The growth of immigration from the EU has led to some towns with traditionally small pockets of migrants, in the Midlands and Wales for example, to experience a rapid change in the make-up of their population.
Millions of Poles and others did just that, settling in every part of the country, including areas unused to immigration.
Imagine if this was happening in the well to do areas the bbc clique live in.. machete attacks were used to close down local pubs because they want the area to be sharia compliant.. and the police appease
Don’t need to look. I see how my area has changed for the worst every day.
BBC reported.
After the Romans and later the Normans invaded, the last Brits in numbers had moved to Wales ...similar today .
BBCPolitics Well there’s a surprise!
What’s your point?
Yet they are taking our jobs and all our taxes. And all our fantastic nhs
Mass Immigration needs to end it hurts the poor by reducing wages and resources and only helps multi national, multi billion pound companies
The stupidity of mass immigration should be stopped & a programme of repatriation introduced.
This is going to be good.
Disgraceful. Enoch Powell was right. Mass immigration has ruined the UK.
The people saying were all immigrants 😳 🤣🤣🤣
The BBC going Nazi. Why are you doing this to yourselves
WHY DID WE DO THIS TO OUR LOVELY COUNTRY the vast majority are from Pakistan and Bangladesh... they have not added anything positive but brought plenty of negative, GHETTOS, FGM, TERRORISM, KNIFE CRIME, RAPE JIHAD, MOSQUES EVERYWHERE, DRUG DEALING
Wow
No big deal: Canada: Over 1 in 5 (over 21%) NZ: 1 in 4 Australia: Over 1 in 4 (over 28%) Only the racist & those with a pathetically insecure sense of national identity will concern themselves over general migration, immigration & emigration
Sad to see the destruction so vividly.
We know how immigration has changed our country. We have to live with it every day!
I don’t think your Dog Whistle is loud enough here tbqfhwy lads
something as gone drastically wrong with the system-it should never have been allowed to get into this state-our leaders and greedy big business are to blame, not people, think before you tweet-we need action to resolve the mess they've put us in-not hate!
Completely destroyed what this country was. English jobs filled with foreigners, nhs full, prisons full, rape gangs, terrorism, division, not much hope for the countries success. onlyhopeisbrexit
peterjukes Well done. Playing to the racist xenophobes with that tweet, given that you know fine well they won’t bother to read as far as the positive impacts buried in the article. If indeed they bother to read it at all, or merely use the headline to justify their sense of outrage.
A new low even for you BBC. Shameful.
Well that's not only dental procedures they were traveling abroad for then. :) Hopefully state if medical services will become much better. And if you have an opportunity to consult your advocate that's the best case as well. Best of bout world for the start?
Why are Wales' three cities still taking in such high volumes of asylum seekers? Surely parts of England who have virtually none should be taking more of them. We've done our bit.
You can stop stoking the fire now, your mates have won.
And the Beeb do a report on the French police and the riots.. Only 62 weeks late..
That's quite sinister.
Such mega immigration means a demographic time bomb is ticking.
Why has the BBC become like reading the ‘Daily Mail’
The Queen’s husband (Greece), the prime minister (USA) ...
Bring on the haters...
Is the bbc just trying to please everyone? You seem to be making far too big of a deal about immigration and acting like it’s some new epidemic
BBCPolitics Jesus that seems really high
This is so interesting, mainly because Bristol has disappeared. BBC you are useless and unbelievably pathetic
Wha-?!
Thanks BBC for fuelling even more xenophobia. Great job.
WTF is this about? You know better than any institution in the UK just how many 'native' British nationals served overseas. These were the people who supported your 'Here is the BBC World Service, London'. My Dad was one of them & I was born overseas. You are institutional whores
Like our Prime Minister.
Any chance of putting some numbers on that key, ? My area is medium pink & yet the percentage of population from outside the uk is just 5.6%. What are you trying to achieve?
What is your purpose in producing this? Just wondering about motivation.
Immigration in my local area has resulted in the following: 1.Helping businesses grow 2.Helping the economy grow 3.Bringing essential skills to serve public including the medical profession 4.Contributing financially due to Immigration Health Surcharge, Skills Charge plus taxes
😂😂😂 all the whites trying to defend mass immigration...
Can the BBC explain why, in a report about all immigration to the UK, they have offered this info: 'A report by the independent government adviser on migration said that EU migrants tend to be net contributors to public services' But nothing about non-EU migrants' contribution?
And the schools hospitals dentists toad trains are all bursting mmmm I wonder why
The text around 2004 gives the racist subtext away. Then again what does one expect from the Boris Broadcasting Corporation.
Gas lighting of the highest order. Disgraceful
Estimated 1 in 1 memebers on the rulling class want you to blaim migrents for their problems. As malcom x said be careful the newspapers will have you loving the oppressors and hating the oppressed
Capitalism demands growth meaning it requires population growth to all you patriotic muppets who say 'their taking our jobs'
We already know how immigration has ruined our country, thanks!
We’re F..ked
Disgraceful statistics. Clearly shows immigration needs to be brought down and limited in the future.
What point are you actually making ? Do you really think you need to stoke any more xenophobia
Has Northern Ireland had a Trump wall built around it?
You are finished
Now my son was born outside the U.K. but is British. I wonder if it includes forces children?
Time for Boris to make it 1 in 20 🇬🇧
Yet nothing is done to get them back to their home country but everything is done to make sure they live better than many pensioners that fought for this country.
I was born in Preston. My dad was Irish and my mum was English. What's that make me? Tell you what, it makes me a part of this lovely great melting pot called the UK - one of the most diverse, if not the most diverse, countries in the world and what a smashing place it really is.
Can we send the ones that are here illegally back now they are not welcome or needed.
This is like a horror movie for conservatives. Anti-immigration sentiment is a disgusting thing.
Including PM Johnson.
Shouldn't that be 'find how immigration has enhanced your area'?
isn't the queen's husband Greek? it makes one stranger in two
Those celebrating mass immigration are akin to a slave cheering the fact his master has got more slaves Population increases might raise GDP but it DOESN'T raise GDP per capita, the true measure of our individual economic well being
We’re all immigrants if you go back far enough 🤔💭
Why do so many immigrants should want to live in this racist country? Asking for a friend.
BBCPolitics Including Boris Johnson.🙄
Find out are you having a laugh, we only need to walk around with our eyes open
State of the country
Why do the BBC think British public are stupid. This study is clearly biased. You mainly had left wing rich university professors contribute. People who have never lived in a working class area and have no clue what goes on. They block you when you call them out
Lets see how many countries did the UK rule/invade, arranging deals for immigration workers etc in the process.. Seems the UK doesn't mind sticking their flag on other countries land, but whines about immigration when they have foreigners next door....
It’s affecting my area negatively
For the worse. Much of London East London is akin to a 3rd world country these days... That cultural enrichment though 👌
wow....scotland is racist then as they dont have many from outside the country lol that needs to change, time for some pro-uk multicultural mass migration to scotland eh? lol
I see Boston in Lincs has had three murder this month, and it’s high, who knew.
Clearly an anti-british thing
BBCPolitics This interactive map claims to represent the UK so either no one living in NI was born outside the UK or NI is no longer part of the UK.
For some unknown reason people keep coming too this small island.
So?
BBCPolitics I wondered what the purpose of this was but then I read the 'analysis' from your Home Editor and I understood. Unfiltered rabble rousing. Shame on you.
Extremely ill considered article when misplaced nationalism is on the rise , what is happening to BBC journalism !
I live in Hull and have no problem whatsoever with immigration! Stop trying to stir up shit!
Why have you posted this
So
BBCPolitics A very impressive dataset
Brilliant isn’t it. What an amazing country
Hmm🤔could it be anything to do with all these wars we keep gambling in ..?just a thought don't shoot the messenger
Hello Is Mark Easton some kind of cretin? Has he forgotten ... ... Thatcher taking about people being afraid the country would be 'swamped' (1978)? ... Alan Clark talking about 'send[ing] them all back to Bongo Bongo land' (1985)? ... Tebbit's 'Cricket Test' (1990)?
A fractured society ?and that is just the beginning. I'd have thought it would be wise and prudent to have the infrastructure and public services to handle the folks we have here rather than continually bringing inmore folk. But i'd better say nothing or i may be called a racist
I'm from Wales and I think it's time to send the Anglo-Saxons packing back to the continent. They've been nothing but trouble. I'm sure my Scottish and Irish compatriots would agree! ;).
Sounds like you're trying to stir up anti-immigration sentiment, .
BBCPolitics That’s demographic shows the problem with unlimited immigration. We should have adopted a points system years ago like the Aussies. Now we are free from European dictatorship the conservatives will now address this. Roll on 31st, Brexit day 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Congratulations BBC. A totally awful, triggering piece of shit to post. So glad I've cancelled my license. British Broadcasting Corporation of the Right Wing.
Like Johnson?
That is what you get when you 'conquered' half of the world
BBCPolitics Immigration has caused me to be in the minority where I grew up. Totally changed far to quick. Surely that’s not right
Mark Easton is a xenophobe. Pass it on.
cristina_lee_ we don't need MSM-13 for that.. we see it alone thank you.. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Since when was the UK a country?
Parts of the country have changed beyond recognition, and not for the better!
BBCPolitics And this is news
So bloody what? We're all immigrants if you look at our ancestry. What is the purpose of this info.? Is it to further inflame the ignorant right who blame all of the bills of this small minded country on 'foriners'?
I wonder how emigration changed the picture - how many people born in the UK no longer live there?
How immigration has change your ears just your are destroyed there countries about your experience in politics
That’s right - you stir up the tension even further
That figure is incorrect - EVERYONE living in the UK is a foreigner dating back to the Roman conquest. Why is it that it’s so easy to forget where we came from and how we got here? But it’s convenient to remember what we want to 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Interesting, the BBC is now promoting racial statistics, very interesting from the BBC.
Don’t have to go on here to see that; just need to walk through the town !!
Including Boris Johnson. Born in New York City
Invasion
Have you included our Prime Minister in these figures?
32% are also living in poverty, and 73% of those have been in the UK for more than 5 years. Also make up 70% of children in poverty. Some facts to show some perspective.
That’s why schooling and nhs is failing but people won’t admit it cause it’s over populated country fact
Yeah, there are four of us, one is British but yet we were all born abroad.
BBCPolitics My grandma came here from Bray in the 30s and I have a French surname lost centuries ago. I am, and always have been, British, despite the amalgam of bloods in my veins. The notion of 'pure British' is utter nonsense.
god this country's gone to the dogs
