To do so Britain would have to leave the EU – a policy advocated only by UKIP and the BNP. The real situation is that about 100,000 non EU workers arrived in that year (including an estimate for dependants). The available statistics do not reliably indicate how many left. The proportion of those arriving was almost double the BBC's figure. A full explanation can be seen at Briefing Paper 10.23. Commenting, Sir Andrew Green, Chairman Migrationwatch UK, said : “The BBC of all people should get their facts right on a subject as sensitive as immigration, especially when they describe their report as a “reality check”. It would have helped if they had paid more attention to immigration policy in the past.” See Notes to Editors for links to relevant sourcesA selection of recent media reports
