But, if you follow through a commitment to reduce the overall number of people coming in, inevitably there will be fewer people ariving even in those areas where there are large immigrant communities.
If you limit the numbers of people allowed in (thats assuming were talking about economic migrants and not asylum seekers as I could NEVER agree with limiting the number of asylum seekers) they will still congregate, causing the sort of problems you talk about. I can't see it creating a huge difference where there is supposedly problems currently.
