Yesterday’s immigration figures are clearly bad news for the Government. A doubling of net migration from the EU to 130,000 in the year to last September has blown them off course. A continued inflow from Poland seems to have been augmented by workers from Italy, Spain and Portugal. Unless there is an unexpected improvement in the EU economy, that inflow can be expected to continue at least for the next few years.
