NEXT INFLUX OF MIGRANTS WILL CAUSE SHORTAGE OF HOUSING, ADMITS PICKLES

MINISTERS were under intense pressure last night to disclose the Government’s estimate for how many immigrants will pour into Britain next year from eastern Europe.

He confirmed that Whitehall officials had done some “preliminary work” on estimating the numbers likely to come from the two countries – which have a combined population of nearly 30 million – and the possible impact on the supply of private and social housing.

Refusing to reveal the figure, he said: “That’s not something I think would be helpful in terms of to go through the numbers just yet.”
