yesterday's daily express (almost a million readers) had the front page headline - and i mean front page headline, i.e., nothing else fitted on the page anymore:

UK SET FOR 200,000 FLOOD OF IMMIGRANTS

couldve been "120,000", or "400,000" - i dont remember. you get the drift <sighs>

a bit like trying to get a 9th pint into a gallon jar.
Assuming the number of would be immigrants is 200,000, why do they want to come to a small overcrowded island.
