Almost one in eight people living in the UK are now foreign born after hitting record levels in the wake of the largest wave of immigration in history.
It meant that just under seven million people living in Britain were immigrants enough to fill a city the size of London.
The rise was largely down to Labour's "open door" immigration policy, under which three million foreigners were added to the population during the party's 13 years in power.
The figures, which were compiled by the Office for National Statistics, were disclosed amid a renewed debate on immigration.
David Cameron warned yesterday that uncontrolled immigration had undermined some British communities and led to "discomfort and disjointedness" in neighbourhoods.
Whats your thoughts? this is taken from the Telegraph newspaper.
Also, can having an opinion on immigration be classed as Discriminating or even racist?
On a personal note, I notice that most of the markets are now closing and all that can be bought at the ones open are asian clothes, foods etc.
Churches are being turned into Mosques or being knocked down to build more mosques.
Is the the 'English' culture, way of life on its way out?
