The pie charts detail the rationales for immigration to and emigration from the UK in 2007. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that immigration was mainly related to various kinds of work, study, and accompanying someone, with no reasons stated and other less typical. Emigration was similarly focused on work (non-definite work being more prevalent) but formal study was a less likely reason and less defined reasons were more common.
In terms of study and work, 30% of immigrants came to the UK for definite jobs, just 1% above the number emigrating for the same purpose. The disparity regarding looking for work was greater (12% for immigration and 22% for emigration) and even more significant concerning formal study (26% immigrating and just 4% emigrating for school).
There was relative alignment for other reasons with 11% immigrating with another purpose and 14% emigrating, comparable to the figures for accompanying another person (15% and 13%, respectively). Finally, only 6% of individuals immigrate to the United Kingdom without a reason, while three times this figure emigrate lacking a stated purpose.

Paraphrase what the bar chart shows.
Write a clear overview summarising the differences and the overall trend.
This one is a little complex so it needs a second sentence for the overview.
