These will vary depending on source, methodology and the point in time to which the figures relate.

The same report estimated that there were 2.7 million EU born migrants resident in the UK. We do not have any figures distinguishing between British citizens living overseas for more or less than 15 years.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 04/06/2015 12:15:22 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
