And I started wondering where all the ‘immigrants’ in the UK came from - so I looked it up!
Migrants in the UK - Published Feb 2017
Now then - you’ll see that 8 of the Top 10 ‘sender’ citizen countries are in the EU (accounting for nearly 50% of all UK migrants) - with a massively important 15.7% share going to the Polish.
So my question is - when folks in the UK refer to immigrants, are they including the EU migrants or not? Are they just exercising their rights of free movement and therefore not real immigrants? Or - were they just all lumped in together to feed Brexit fever?
Proud to be an immigrant in France - Yeah!
