    Net migration to UK in 2010 at record high

    BBC News - Net migration to UK in 2010 at record high

    I would comment, but I've lost the power of speech. Apart from saying that I've lost the power of speech, and subsequent explanations obviously. Right, definitely speechless now.

    They've all read Sasguru's posts about how London's streets are paved with gold.

      Yes, indeed. I posted on this yesterday:

      We are seeing in these days that there are fewer British emigres. Indeed, the evidence I have at hand suggests that indeed many are returning from their lands of milk and honey to an uncertain life in the uk where the values of their assets from their adopted homelands does not strecth as far as they would wish back in the uk. But the reason for fewer peolple leaving the uk is, I postulate, that it is harder to sell houses for the right price and these gilt edged opportunities for westerners with the right skills are now going to natives of other countries.

        Somebody who's studied spatial demography would argue that immigration and emigration ebb and flow unpredictably and there's almost nothing governments can do to stop them, short of building big walls.

              They're all going to need somewhere to live. 270000 new houses required each year, only 100000 being built.

              What you need is a BTL strategy.
