Migrant cover-up: Reports kept secret by Labour show mass immigration cut wages, raised tensions and that too many stayed too long
Labour is today accused of a ‘shocking’ cover-up over the impact of years of mass immigration as damning official research buried by the last government is revealed.
Ministers will publish three reports commissioned at the taxpayers’ expense by Labour politicians – but then apparently ‘sat on’ because of their inconvenient conclusions.
Government advisers concluded immigration had depressed wages, threatened to increase community tensions and seen many incomers stay longer than intended.
The Coalition claims the unpublished reports, which cost more than £100,000 to produce, are extraordinary evidence of how Labour lost control of Britain’s borders and then tried to cover it up.
Sorry, wrong answer. Labour didn’t “lose control” of Britain’s “borders,” (BTW, how does one lose control of a OCEAN? It’s not like you’ve got 2,000 miles of empty desert to patrol), the real answer is that Labour wanted the borders open in order to import new Labour voters.
And for a government that consists of a string-bean coalition between open borders Tories and open borders Learning Disableds to rap Labour’s knuckles for being open border is a wee bit hypocritical, don’t we think? Don’t think that it’s just David Cameron and his new brand of liberal conservatism that’s the cause for the Tories being for open borders — Even Margaret Thatcher liked to pop off about “Muslim family values.”
