MASS migration into the UK is “a big problem,” according to three-quarters of Britons.
Half the nation also believes that control of the huge numbers flowing in and out of the country is “the most worrying issue”.
The widescale public attitude is a dire warning for the Government’s expert panel examining the impact of immigration on Britain.
The findings, which echo similar polls, have been presented to the influential Migration Impact Forum which has been set up to assess the effects of Labour’s open-door policy.
They come as the European Commission is about to propose a work permit scheme for non-EU workers. It could result in 20 million more immigrants flooding into to Europe.
The Daily Express reported yesterday that academics have warned that our population will hit 81 million in only one generation because of mass migration and high birth rates.
