Brown's manifesto "....those who come to this country, should contribute to UK...." Surely this is a bit late from Brown ?

Why hasn't he implimented this before - or maybe it just applies to new-comers ?

"Why hasn't he implimented this before " - could it possibly be that there is a general election comming and Noo Labour are realising that immigration is a vote loser so they are attempting to close the stable door etc?
It will never happen with Labour, just look at the increased figures in the last 13 years.

Could the infrastructure of this country stand another 5 years of Labours immigration policy?
I don't know why people take any notice about pre-election promises. Lies all lies
The only reference to Immigration in the BBC 'Manifesto at a Glance' is;

# English tests for all migrants in public sector jobs

Surely there will always have been an objective from any government that ///those who come to this country, should contribute to UK///

It's silly to suggest that any Prime Minister of the past 50 years would have stated that 'those coming to this country shouldn't contribute'???

The only question is whether the economic gains from immigration have exceeded any costs.
>Could the infrastructure of this country stand another 5 years of Labours immigration policy?

Could the infrastructure of this country stand another 5 years of Labour...full stop
>>Could the infrastructure of this country stand another 5 years of Labours immigration policy?

I have just noticed, you gave them the credit of it being a "policy".

Could it actually be incompetence, laziness, disinterest, lack of planning, lack of control and so on that has allowed rampant immigration since they have been in power.
The percentage of foreign born population has more than doubled from 4% in 1951 to around 8% today with immigration rates still increasing.

Has any ABer seen a mainstream party plan for what percentage we should plateau at? Or any quantification at all?
