Miliband - Labour got it wrong on immigration blah, blah...

Quote:

Past errors in immigration policy contributed to voters in the south of England "losing trust" in Labour, Ed Miliband has acknowledged.

The opposition leader told the BBC the last government had "got it wrong" on the issue in terms of underestimating migrant numbers and their impact on wages and housing in parts of the UK.

He's only just noticed has he?... Yawn...

These people make me sick! They spend years in denial about the massive influx of migrants and treating people who dared to raise concerns about it like rabid xenophobes and then have the audacity to 'apologise' and acknowledge their mistakes when they've been booted out of power. Same thing with the economy. Years of utter denial on that, liberally peppered with wild claims to have 'broken the cycle of boom and bust' etc. then 'apologies' all round when they've been shown up for what they really are and are in need of votes!

This isn't something they can fix with an apology, generations will have to live with the decisions they made.

Worse than that, I believe it's something they have no intention of doing anything about (even where there are powers to do it). Labour engineered mass migration (jerrymandering on a national level) and they'd carry on regardless if put back in power and anyone tempted by this latest rhetoric ought to bear that in mind.
