Having no restrictions on eastern European migrants in 2004 was a "spectacular mistake", former Labour home secretary Jack Straw has said.
The Labour MP said handing immediate working rights to Poles and others when they joined the EU nine years ago was a "well-intentioned policy we messed up".

I (and others) said that on CF back then and were called racists by our Left leaning members here. No apology yet......not that I expect one as Guardianistas tend not to apologise, they just make excuses and move on to the next five year plan

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
I don't like to say this guys, but if you arrive at traffic lights, guarantee you that the window washers will be Romas, you will find them at Hanger Lane A40 jucn. They are there everyday.

I didn't know they were different groups until the youngest told me. This group have taken over the small park, community centre and basketball court just off City Road near the Poets Corner pub. (I think it's Shakespeare Road) There are dozens of them there all hours of the day and night.
I understand they don't even live in the area, most of them seem to wander over from the Splott area. There has been some issues with vandalism as they make their way home, the only good thing about them is the chav's from Llanrumney who used to travel to the area to cause trouble are now to scared to visit.

So you also noticed how members with certain political views went quiet and cable forum changed not long after the last election.
The race card was a powerful tool to stifle debate, I believe I read a few months ago that there were claims that Labour paid people to go on forums and discredit any views that were not to the left.
The irony of Labour MPs makng comments about immigration

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
I wonder where it's all going to end? The future looks pretty dim.

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
There are no immigrants, regardless of colour, nationality etc around here. I almost feel left out...

The immigrant populations seem to have been gravitating towards the larger towns and cities in Wales. After Newport and Cardiff, the next big groups I've seen are in Port Talbot, Neath, Llanelli and Swansea. The North has had a very large Eastern European influx from what I have been told.
Roma are very involved with the Clothes for Charity scams, even raiding recycling bins... and this is bound to be upsetting the Latvian/Lithuanian (not sure which) "organisations" who also do this.

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
Not quite - there are very few (if any) in Neath, Port Talbot and in Swansea there are hardly any.
The way some people go on about immigrants, we almost feel left out or seemingly like the problem is exaggerated elsewhere.

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
Plenty of immigrants in Llandudno, the hotel we stayed at was virtually run by them.

Re: Blunkett in Roma warning
Russ, if you live in Wales, there no ports there is there. I will send some Romas over to you, straight up the A40 over the Severn Bridge - bingo.
About six weeks ago, the police nicked six of them just up the road. After they did someones house. They will go straight to Colnbrook detention centre.

Besides Newport, Barry, Port Talbot, Cardiff, Swansea, Milford Haven, Fishguard, Holyhead, and Mostyn?
