THE number of foreigners coming into Britain surged by a massive 21 per cent last year, shattering the Government’s pledge to bring immigration down.
Official figures yesterday showed the number of immigrants soared to 239,000 – up from 198,000 in 2009.
A legacy of Labour’s open-door policy, it was the second highest annual figure since 1991. A total of 575,000 people moved to this country in 2010 - the equivalent of one every minute - with only 336,000 departing for overseas.
The Office for National Statistics also said that the number of people granted settlement –the first step to full citizenship – in the UK also reached a record 241,000 last year. A total of 195,000 were granted British citizenship, down from the record high of 204,000 in 2009, but more than double the level of a decade ago.
The number of people applying for asylum also fell last year but has started to rise again, with 4,800 applications between April and June, mainly from Pakistan and war-torn Libya.

This gives a lie to all those silky promises made by David Cameron at the General Election.

The majority of immigrants arriving in Britain – 300,000 – were from outside the EU. But net migration – the difference between those arriving and leaving – from eastern European countries rocketed to 39,000.
Britain’s total Polish population is now to 532,000, which is the same as the fifth largest city in Poland, Poznan.
Campaigners last night warned the Government will struggle to fulfil its pledge to slash net migration to tens of thousands by 2015.
Sir Andrew Green, chairman of the campaign group Migration Watch UK, said: “These figures lay bare the legacy of the Labour government. The Coalition will have to face down some vested interests if they are to get anywhere near their target.”

Gerard Batten, Ukip’s home affairs spokesman, accused the Government of “losing the plot”.
“The rise of 21 per cent tears a gaping hole in any pretence that this Government has the faintest idea of how to deal with runaway migration,” he said.
“This gives a lie to all those silky promises made by David Cameron at the General Election. They have lost the plot.”
But Immigration Minister Damian Green defended the figures, saying that the rise in net migration covered a period before the Government’s immigration reforms were brought in. “The figures stabilised in the last quarter,” he said. “The Government radically changed immigration policy, from our first months in office, to drive the numbers down with a limit on economic migration and changes to student visas.”
Study remained the most common reason for coming to the UK, with three in four of the 228,000 student immigrants from outside the EU.
Dr Carlos Vargas-Silva, a senior researcher at Oxford University’s Migration Observatory, said the rise in immigration from eastern Europe “raises the question of whether Government policies to cut net migration from outside the EU may be stimulating a demand for more EU workers”.
The figures came as an audit by MigrationWatch showed that Labour spent £2million every day on a shambolic asylum system.
The audit showed how up to £10billion was spent on processing applications as officials struggled to cope with a surge in numbers.
But only one in four of the 660,000 decisions made on asylum claims between 1997 and 2010 led to the applicant being removed.
