The official figures for new eastern European workers in Britain published today showing that 447,000 have applied for registered work since May 2004 explode the claims that there are more than a million new migrants flooding into Britain each year, writes Alan Travis.

make up 250,000 of the 447,000 who have
registered, making claims that there are one million Poles living in
Britain look rather exaggerated.
