The data breaks down 25 of Britain's biggest groups to paint a picture of the one in six people living in the UK who were born abroad."
Britannist adds: I bet Snow (referred to above) won't be talking to MigrationWatch (see their website). As for the IPPR (also mentioned above) - it's a pro-immigration and pro-Labour organisation.

If you saw the programme he did actually talk to Sir Michael Green.
I thought the programme tried to cover too much ground but to say it was Jon Snow and channel 4 it was not bad.
It threw up talking points that many of us have raised for years.
