There was a net increase of 185,000 in Britain's population due to immigration in 2005- the equivalent of an extra 500 people a day, according to official figures published today. The Office of National Statistics estimate that 565,000 migrants arrived in Britain in 2005 intending to stay for at least a year. This is the second highest total recorded since 1991 and was partly fuelled by the EU accession of Poland and the other former communist east European states in April 2004. The annual level of migration from Britain has risen each year since 1998, when 251,000 left in the first full year of Tony Blair's government. Although the largest single increase in new migrants to Britain came from Poland, with 57,000 arriving in 2005 compared with only 17,000 the year before, more long term migrants actually came from India. A breakdown of the occupations of new migrants also shows that 170,000 of them describe themselves as 'professional or managerial' and only 143,000 intend to work in 'manual or clerical jobs'. Work is the most important reason for immigration to Britain with 28% having a definite job to go to and 15% of those who came said they were looking for work. The latest government estimates for the long-term immigration trend to Britain assume that it will continue at the slightly lower level of 145,000 a year.
At such level of immigration and emigration can we even imagine what can happen to our work force or our economy? Well the scene is not bad now..but it may be, if these things are left unchecked. Migration is not bad, but if it grows unabated, unchecked then probably it might cretae a problem for all of us. If we try to analyse the statistics we can see a alarming rate of swell in migration, be it In or be it Out. The maximum emigrationn for example is in employment area where foreign labour account for the maximum percentage. These things are hampering our economy as the resources being occupied by foreign labour drain the currency out of the country rather it remaining with us. Our people are loosing out jobs at the event of foreign labour. This is just an example. There are many more linked things liable to occur due to this sudden increase in migration factor. The government should take these things seriously as it is a matter of notional economy and security of british citizen's interest.
