Available for over a year

The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Secretary Theresa May has said mass immigration to the UK over the past decade has led to school and hospitals being overcrowded, lower wages and a shortage of housing. Net migration to the UK between April 2014 and March 2015 was 330,000 - an increase of 28% of the year before. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ secretary says that immigration at the pace we've seen over the last decade has made it hard to build a cohesive, integrated society.
