The number of migrants in England and Wales has doubled over the past decade, census figures have revealed.
They now make up one in eight of the population after more arrived between 2001 and 2011 than in the previous five decades put together.
The number living in the country is now 7.5million.

More than half of those arrived over the ten years since 2001, according to a national census analysis published yesterday.
The figures show 3.8million people came to Britain from abroad in the period – more than the 3.7million who came during the previous 50 years.
The breakdown comes from an analysis of the ten-yearly census carried out in March 2011.
The figures have already revealed that at the time there were almost half a million more people living in the country than previously suspected.

The latest analysis provides a fresh illustration of the impact of the wave of immigration under the governments of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.
They come in the week former minister Lord Mandelson acknowledged the scale of migration encouraged by Labour had made life difficult for people who are now hard-pressed to find or keep jobs.
He said that in 2004 ‘we were sending out search parties for people to come’.

Sir Andrew Green of MigrationWatch said: ‘It is simply astonishing that the number of immigrants in the country should have been allowed to double in ten years.’
There were more than 4.6million people born abroad and officially considered to be immigrants in 2001.
Around 900,000 of them died, returned to their countries of origin, or moved on elsewhere over the subsequent decade.

According to the breakdown, nearly a third of the current immigrant population of the country arrived in just five years between 2004 and 2009 – the years after Poland and seven other Eastern European countries joined the EU.
About 2.4million people came to Britain over the five-year period, during which Labour ministers had predicted that Eastern European migrants would come at the rate of 13,000 a year.
The decade after 2001 also saw high immigration from countries outside Europe.
‘Over half of all residents born in Nigeria, South Africa and the United States arrived since 2001,’ the ONS report said.
‘For residents born in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh the decade 2001-2011 also had the highest percentage of arrivals.
‘By contrast 60 per cent of Jamaican-born residents arrived before 1981.’
