Net migration to
the UK was estimated to be 330,000 in the year to March, the highest
figure on record, the Office for National Statistics has said.
The
figure - the difference between the number entering the country and
those leaving - is more than three times higher than the government's
target.In 2014, 13% of people in the UK were born abroad, taking the foreign-born population to 8.3m.
Immigration Minister James Brokenshire said it was "deeply disappointing".
