Restrictions on the free movement of workers from Bulgaria and Romania across the European Union will be lifted as of January 1st. The British government has responded by introducing new measures restricting the rights of EU migrants to unemployment benefits. But Bulgarians and Romanians already living in Britain said many of them never relied on government social services to survive. Al Jazeera's Barnaby Phillips reports from London.
