Interesting chart. What about a chart that shows "others" who are not from the E.U.? Cheers. |

Haven't been able to find one with a clear breakdown like that (so far). |

Interesting chart. But that graph is wrong. Very wrong. About 90,000 Swedes live in the UK. As many as there are people from Slovakia . Or did they already left in 2015? And where are the Danes? Sigh... http://www.sviv.se/blog/2015/06/660-000-svenskar-bor-utomlands/ |

Haven't been able to find one with a clear breakdown like that (so far).Raw ONS data.

Still wrong:) Sweden 26,000 should be 90,000. Our tax authority knows how many Swedes who doesn't pay tax, the pension authority how many people receive a pension abroad and the central study support committee how many receive study subsidy abroad. Can you trust Office for National Statistics ? I don't! |

So you're saying that 64,000 Swedes told their tax authorities they were moving to Britain, and either never arrived or told the Brits they'd moved out again? I hope they pay tax somewhere ;-) |

I hope they pay tax somewhere ;-)Perhaps. I don't know:) But I think the Office for National Statistics has done something wrong. I don't think that so many as 64,000 Swedes could possibly work in Britain without paying British tax. Hmm. I came up with a great idea. Let the Office for National Statistics contact Skatteverket (Swedish tax authority) Btw. I pay tax in Britain. Every year I have to declare the value of my assets there. But I never know much tax I have paid Britain. I have tried to get some answer from the British tax authorites. They don't know! Grrrrr.... |

Yep definitely wrong. Either one can't trust the media or 50,000 Irish emigrated in 24 hours. Do they know something we don't? Reality Check |

An Absolutist for Prime Minister Hmm, wonder if Ladbrokes are taking bets that she'll still be PM at the end of this parliament? |

Using historic and 2011 Census data, we look at the immigration patterns of residents who were born outside the UK. Over the past 60 years the population has become more diverse, with an increase in the number of residents who were born outside the UK, from just 4.3% in 1951 to 13% in 2011. The top 5 non-UK countries of birth in 2011 were India, Poland, Pakistan, Republic of Ireland and Germany. 2011 Census analysis: Immigration Patterns of Non-UK Born Populations in England and Wales in 2011 Care to hazard a guess why Germany is mentioned in the Census, and it has been in the top 5 for every census since 1970. |

"On housing, Mr Green will promise that the Conservatives will build "high-quality" homes, including social housing that creates "sustainable and integrated communities"." Cladding free I trust? 7 years on, the BIG Con has failed |

Theresa May could storm out of Brexit talks over 'divorce bill' And the rest of Europe says 'OK, that's fine by us. Bye bye.' |

Poll finds that 60% of Britons want to keep their EU citizenship. It's interesting that so many of the young generation wants to be part of EU. Support for retaining the rights is particularly strong among 18- to 24-year-olds, 85% of whom want to retain their EU citizenship in addition to their British citizenship. Around 80% of people living in London also want to maintain the same rights. |

They've known nothing but, life in/under the EU, so maybe it is not so surprising, really. Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

They've known nothing but, life in/under the EU, so maybe it is not so surprising, really. British people have been life in/under the EU since 1973. There are many of us being even older people, 60+, that have opinions about the EU. But we are now in a minority. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-32810887 |
