Immigration Impasse

One wonders how this Labour Government will respond to today's report on the economic effects of immigration. Or, indeed, the lack of such effects. Having contributed- on a per capita basis- trivial, non-existent gains in terms of GDP (pence!), some reflection on this damaging policy must now take place. This reflection, in the face of the ever loosening bonds of social cohesion (see- for instance- the property market that cannot cope with this influx of immigrants) is urgent.

Urgent to everyone except Labour, that is. The great chimera of our times- diversity- will be wheeled out again, and anyone still up for the fight will be branded a racist. What loathsome times we live in under this Labour government: free speech, but...

I say this: there are other priorities besides blindly pursued economic growth.
