Have you not heard:
"About half of the people who moved to Britain from the countries that joined the European Union on 1 May 2004 have already left the UK, according to a major report published today by the ippr."

This is how East European immigration is presented, they come they work hard and go home - which the vast majority do. Africans, Asians and other persons with a darker hues also work hard and and go home. These traits however are only attributed to East Europeans in media land. It's telling when that stalwart of anti-immigration Sir Andrew Green commenting on the report on newsnight makes the distinction between East European migrants and what he called "third world migrants". Apart from the geogrphical difference between the two groups, which other difference do you think he has in mind? The whole East European succession has allowed those who are "concerned" about "third world" (read those with darker skins) migration to speak out without nakedly reavealing their racism. In this Country you cannot seperate race and immigation.
Also the folks in this video seemed scared to me:
