This is a really crap story...

UK tabloid Daily Star informs its readers that a "massive" influx of migrants entering the UK from Bulgaria can be expected in the wake of the economic crisis.

According to the newspaper, which cites its source as Bulgarian newspaper Standart, "a massive 29 per cent of the population can no longer afford to eat, while one in five earn less than £90 a month (about 200 leva) for full-time work".

The Daily Star quotes figures saying that more than 2000 immigrants a month came to the UK from the former Eastern Bloc nation before the recession, then the numbers began to dwindle. According to the newspaper, "now Bulgarian officials believe similar numbers could start heading to the UK again, despite our (the UK's) population standing at over 61 million".

The article goes on to quote a Bulgarian official as saying: "Britain is the No 1 target for people leaving our country. It’s where they believe they can most easily pick up work."

The paper concludes by saying that "the influx is set to be one of the trickiest issues for new immigration minister Damian Green".

Uncles Comment: For the poorest the diet is poor but this is just alarmist nonsense.Usually the young economically mobile leave, most cannot afford to.
