Migrants also swelled the number of people in Sheffield by 20,000 and Bristol by 16,000 between 2011 and 2015, the Office for National Statistics revealed.

The ONS said Greater London will rise by another 13 per cent to nearly 10million by 2025. Migrant mums are set to account for more than half of all births.
