These people take out more than they put in.

The majority so far seem to be in favour of us allowing people to stay.
I'm interested as to whether people think that this should also apply to those convicted of criminal activity, or who have never worked to any great extent or are a burden on our NHS etc?

More recent research exists
This research has since been updated, but the figures largely aren’t equivalent to the ones quoted above.
The latest findings estimate that recent immigrants from the 10 countries that joined the EU in 2004 (mainly eastern European) contributed £1.12 for every £1 received. Those from the rest of the EU put in £1.64 for every £1.
