    As EU work restrictions are lifted for Romanian and Bulgarian migrants, the influx has begun... of Britons heading for Bucharest

    Many Romanians were put off moving to the UK because of its increasingly racist rhetoric

    It was billed as the day when a flood of migrants from Eastern Europe would descend on Britain's airports and ferry terminals, the day when thousands upon thousands of economic migrants would arrive to price our indigenous population out of the job market - and impose an intolerable burden on our free-at-the-point-of-use health service and welfare state.

    So the story went. But on the evidence of Flight BA886 - from Heathrow to Bucharest's Henri Coanda International airport - it seems that Romania and Bulgaria may have more to worry about than we do.

    Barnaby Davis, 30, from London, has been teaching English in Bucharest for the last six months. He now lives in the Romanian capital with his American girlfriend, Sorcha Sills, 26, who is also a teacher, and was travelling back for the start of term.

    "We wanted to live in Eastern Europe because it's really interesting and we'd heard great things about Romania," Mr Davis said. "There's a large ex-pat community and it's a good place to live because the wages are so much higher than the cost of living, so fundamentally we're better off than we would be in the UK."
