40 per cent of new homes gone to immigrunts

Four in ten homes built over the past ten years have been needed because of immigration, figures have revealed. While immigrants given 'highly skilled' visas are working here as taxi drivers and food packers.

Nearly 600,000 properties have had to be constructed because of the new arrivals since Labour came to power in 1997, said researchers at the House of Commons Library.

This is three times more than the number of homes needed for immigrants under the last Conservative government.

The library, a team of independent researchers who carry out work for MPs, said an average of 19,000 immigrant households a year were established between 1992 and 1997.
