The numbers, for the year ending in September 2014, are now well above the level of migration when David Cameron came to power in 2010.

UKIP, which campaigns for Britain to leave the EU and wants an Australian-style work permit system, said the government "should be ashamed of its abject failure to keep control of the constantly rising numbers of those arriving here".

and the odiously put this news out today to be buried by the Jimmy Saville report on the hospital - sad.

Office for National Statistics announces a net flow of 298,000 migrants to the UK in the 12 months to last September


Still, lets just focus on UKIP being Nazis like the present Government want you to focus on

When the last scrap of land has been built on, can we then have a sensible conversation about curbing immigration, without being labelled a racist?

nope. even if a radical blows a person up for drawing a cartoon youre not allowed to talk about it freely without the word racist being bandied about. strangely though those who do the blowing up are never called racists?

I notice that every single village near me is having massive amount of construction, loads of houses going up on the edges of the villages. Pretty soon they're all going to join up and that'll be that.

Also noticed this near my area Livia, my village is semi rural but by the time the houses have been all been built it looks like we will be almost connected to the nearest village.

Livingston up where my Grandad lives is doing the same. When I was a kid there was a massive field and woodland area around his estate and now the houses they've built on it are so close up it's arse end it feels and looks horrible. I'm sure Scotland has a lower population density overall than down here so they can take it I'm sure but it crushes me to see wall to wall houses springing up.

Steven Woolfe MEP, the UKIP Migration spokesman.

"The Government should be ashamed of its abject failure to keep control of the constantly rising numbers of those arriving here", he said.

"This Government's policy is fatally holed beneath the water line and is sinking fast.

"The figures show that 624,000 people arrived here in the past year alone. To put that into perspective that is equivalent to the populations of both Liverpool and Aberdeen combined.

"More significantly perhaps is the fact that the net migration figure was just under 300,000 people.

"This is a 42% increase on the year on year figures from last year. That's a city the size of Hull settling here in the last 12 months.

"No Government can rationally plan to build the services required to cope with these numbers. The schools, the hospitals, the houses, the roads cannot be provided at such a speed, the capital costs required are huge and burden on the taxpayer will be even more strained.

"The Government has planned for failure by deceiving themselves and the country that they could keep these figures down to their infamous idea of "tens of thousands".

"During the course of this parliament, the Government has seen more than a million incomers settle permanently in the UK.

"According to the ONS there have been a "statistical significant" increase under every matrix they use including net long term migration, overall immigration, family reunions, national insurance numbers registered, and those coming here for employment and study.

Mr Woolfe continued, "Migration is one of the top concerns going into this election and it is clear that UKIP is the only party trusted to deal with it.

"We will set a cap on the number of people permitted to work and reside in the UK by introducing a fairer, and more transparent points based system ensuring we get the skilled immigrants we need and in numbers that the economy can manage."
