labour party…and not about immigration

The immigration debate between the mainstream parties can now be summarised thus: 1. No-one talks about immigration and so it’s time we talked about immigration. 2. Of course, immigration is pretty good, but some people think bits of it are bad, and therefore we need to talk about immigration. 3. Other people who talk about immigration are polarising the debate in an unhelpful way. 4. Here are our very tough measures on immigration which are tougher than the other party’s measures. If you’re lazy, you can apply that to any speech from a minister or shadow frontbencher for the next few months.
