But some migrants who do get over the initial problems say they are facing a growing tide of racism in the town.

That is borne out by recent anti-migrant letters in Boston newspapers, fights which break out sporadically between locals and Portuguese or other foreign youths and an attack on a Turkish club.

An anti-migrant campaign group, Boston Citizens United, has also been set up.

Sergio Magalhaes says he and friends have all been the target of abuse from some locals.

"If you are in the streets at night, either alone or with friends, they will shout at you and those sort of things," he said.

Local businessman Vasco de Mello who owns a bar and employment agency in the town believes he has also suffered due to racism, with false complaints about him and his businesses made to the council.

"I can't say it's only racial problems because some people are very jealous but it's not everyone, I have some very good English friends" Mr de Mello said.

But in Boston's bustling market place, opinions on the newcomers appears divided.

"There aren't enough jobs for local people never mind bringing them in," said one middle-aged woman.

But local factory worker, Barry White, said he had no problems with the Portuguese.

"I don't mind the migrant workers coming in providing they're from the EEC because we're all part of Europe.

" But I do get annoyed at the people skipping into this country who have no right and are just coming here for a gravy ticket," he said.

Why would you get mad at the Portuguese? Have they done anything to anyone, ever?
