Record number of jobless EU migrants in Britain: Hammer blow for PM as 270,000 EU nationals came here last year

 

 

A record number of jobless EU migrants moving to Britain to look for work has pushed immigration from the European Union to an all-time high.

In a hammer blow to David Cameron, official figures showed the total number of EU nationals coming here under freedom-of-movement rules hit 270,000 last year.

This included a record 77,000 who came without the offer of a job. It also included a record number of arrivals from Romania and Bulgaria, according to the Office for National Statistics.

Net EU migration – taking into account the number of European Union citizens who left the UK – was 184,000, equivalent to a town the size of Colchester.

Overall net migration, including those from outside the EU, was 333,000 in the year to December, the second highest annual level on record.
