• Many men had been killed in the war so migrant workers were encouraged to come to work

• They came mainly from Africa, Asia and the Caribbean.

Migration to the UK• Immigrants to the UK

came mainly from the Caribbean and Indian Empire

• Commonwealth Citizens had free entry into the UK

• By 1971 there were over 1 million immigrants from Commonwealth countries

What jobs did they take?

How did they control the numbers coming in?
