Quote:
A leaked Labour document - which has been sent to some of the party's MPs and activists - says they should avoid talking about immigration when they're campaigning.
It says the issue could be "unhelpful" and may risk losing votes.
The leak comes as the Labour leader Ed Miliband prepares to set out plans to stop cheap foreign labour replacing British workers.

Clearly they feel so confident about their policy that they don't want to debate the issue.
Well, what's new? They spent years denying it would be or was a problem and calling those with concerns bigots, amongst other things. It's ironic how every time an immigration issue crops up now they waste no time blaming HMG for it when in most cases the problems arose during, or as a result of decisions made, their tenure. No mention of the ineptitude and social engineering which characterised their policy.
HMG certainly hasn't covered itself in glory with its handling of immigration matters but if Miliband thinks he can distance himself and his party from the massive effects their policy has had on large swathes of the country, he's got another think coming I reckon.
