Labour will let anyone in

-

IN the first couple of weeks of the General Election campaign we have seen a number of Labour Party activists on this page attempting to convince that Labour is the defender of public services and the working classes, one even making the risible suggestion that spiralling living costs is something that doesn’t happen when Labour is in power.

However, nothing more exposes Labour’s posturing in this way, and where its priorities truly lie, than its present adopted policy for immigratio­n.

Should the middle class far-left crazies who now control the Labour Party come to power, then the increase in taxes on working people and businesses will be going a long way to finance the increase in public spending caused by its policy of unlimited immigratio­n.

The Labour Conference has adopted a policy that not only would allow migrants to access more public services but which would also ‘reject any immigratio­n system based on incomes, migrants’ utility to business, and number caps/ targets”. In a nutshell; Labour will allow anyone from anywhere, and in any number, to stroll into the UK. Many of these will be unemployab­le and welfare dependent, and who will then, no doubt, bring their relatives in tow on spurious grounds of ‘human rights’ entitlemen­t.

Jeremy Corbyn, whose idea of a Brexit ‘deal’ is continued free movement of people with the EU, has recently claimed that immigratio­n ‘enriches the lives of us all.’ Well, not for British working people, it doesn’t.

Now is the time for working people to let Labour know that. P. Anderson, Salford
