187,000: National Insurance Numbers issued to Romanians and Bulgarians in 2014, two thirds of whom arrived since 1 January 2014.

“We do need to look at this sensibly…”

Yet again Ukip & backbench Tories and some Labour proved right on another issue despite the giggling, slurs and name calling that they had over it from BBC alleged comedians, Keith Vaz, Nick Clegg and the media and mainstream political parties in general.

However bad the news, it is nice to be proved right on yet another issue and yes I will blow my own horn. Keith Vaz you LIAR.

And over 24 hours later, nothing from those who scoffed at suggestions that hundreds of thousands would come with the borders opening.

The silence is deafening.

Not sure where 187,000 * 2/3 came from when the figure is 37,000 - which is only 13,000 more than before. Not sure why you keep citing Guido, he's a pathetic excuse for a journalist.

When absolutely zero sources are given it's difficult to reply properly, but looks as though you're lying and manipulating random numbers as usual anyway so no worries

(Indeed, with 187,000 National Insurance numbers handed out to citizens of these two desperately poor countries last year, 37,000 may be a chronic underestimate).

The figure is 22,000 more than the same period in 2013.

ONS also produce annual estimates of the resident population of the UK by country of birth and nationality. The latest available data was published in August 2014, for January to December 2013.

The estimated resident population of Bulgarian citizens was 49,000 compared to 53,000 in the previous year.

Figures from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) and National Insurance Numbers (NINos) allocated to adult overseas nationals provide information on employment of EU2 nationals. These sources suggest that over the last year there were increases in the number of EU2 nationals either seeking work or in employment.

In the year ending September 2014, NINo allocations to Romanian nationals increased by 86,000 (468%) to 104,000. Over the same period NINo allocations to Bulgarian nationals increased by 21,000 (205%) to 32,000 from the previous year. The NINo statistics represent a flow measure of non-UK nationals registering for a NINo.

Data from the LFS shows the number of Bulgarian and Romanian citizens in employment in the UK. The latest estimates show 167,000 Bulgarian and Romanian citizens employed in the UK in July to September 2014, a 33% increase on the same period in 2013.

Those of me who warned numbers would rise have been proved right, just as we were back in 2004 when the B'Liar Ministry got it 1000% wrong.

Yes but he's running the most popular political blog in the country and you are not... so.

Not saying I like all of what he writes anyway, far too close to the Conservatives for me but it's the comment section I love on his website.

Oh dear.

Ok so now you've shown a source that supports exactly what Will said, and still totally failed beyond a Daily Mail quote to show where this 187,000 figure comes from. Oh dear indeed.

Also the graph seems to show that any time there's an increase it's of about the same magnitude, it's just that more recently the number of those staying is continuing rather than falling again after a short period - surely this is a good thing as opposed to having people come over to take advantage of the country and then leaving? Long-term settlement and work is far more desirable than benefits tourism

I knew someone would mention the Daily Mail despite me having also posted from the Beeb, Guardian and above all: the ONS.

The figures, percentages and the graph show the reality of what has happened: a huge surge. We were right to warn and we've been proven right.

Here's another graph that is a consequence of it all. Bearing in mind that the Tories have always led on this Q and 'owned' the issue since records began decades ago. Another historic shift.

1000 more per month is a huge surge? What drugs are you on Dan?

The drugs I am on obviously give my common sense a boost considering I was right about opening the borders to Romania and Bulgaria.

As I said, the figures speak for themselves and despite Keith Vaz MP and fellow travellers like you lot saying that is was simply scaremongering that hundreds of thousands of Romanians and Bulgarians would turn up....... that's just exactly what happened. Like it did in 2004 and just as we warned.

Net immigration is now running at nearly 300,000 a year which is a CITY the size of Hull. Think impacts on healthcare, social services, education. It's absurd.
