It's not a dilemma except in relation to how to deal with the UK's boat people.

It is a myth to say that the government is against immigration - it is not. It is against uncontrolled immigration - a little point of detail most people on the left of politics try to cover over.

There are some occupations where it is virtually impossible to recruit from within the UK. What the government is trying to encourage is ensuring that employers try harder to attract UK people by offering training and more money first. Only when all reasonable measures fail will the government allow recruitment from abroad.

It is cheap foreign labour that has had the impact of depressing wages and creating unemployment in this country.
