Illegal Migrants: A correction

A 23 Jan article said that Thames Water figures ‘show’ that one in 12 Londoners are illegal migrants.

Further, the ‘1 in 12’ figure included some legal migrants, for instance those given indefinite leave to remain and some British-born children of migrants with irregular status.
