But the number of foreigners living here still increased by 700 each day, new figures show. Some 427,000 people left the UK, up from 341,000 in 2007. They included 172,000 Britons starting a new life in countries such as Australia, Spain and France. Polish men scan the job ads in a shop window in Hammersmith, west London. Many Polish workers are now heading home, new figures show
