A major study by the Centre for Research and Migration at University College London, published in 2009, demonstrated that EU migrants to Britain from the new member countries were better educated, more likely to be in employment and much less likely to be claiming benefits than UK-born nationals.
En stor undersøgelse fra Center for Forskning og migration ved University College i London, der blev offentliggjort i 2009, viste, at EU-indvandrere til Storbritannien fra de nye medlemslande var bedre uddannede, mere tilbøjelige til at være i beskæftigelse og mindre tilbøjelige til at modtage kontante ydelser end statsborgerne.
