Subject: RE: BS: The BNP conundrum
Here are some facts:

Net migration last year fell below natural population growth for the first time for a very long time. Ever since 2007 (the date of the Torygraph article you cite) net immigration has been substantially below the projections you feared.



In fact, as of 28th August this year http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/News/News-By-Industry/Services/Travel/Visa-Power/Net-migration-to-UK-falls-to-lowest-in-five
And before you say "Oh, the Times of India" - it's actually from a Reuters feed.

Come on Keith - tell me how your immigration policy differs from the BNP's. I'll start by assuming you are not planning to sink ships, or throw people out of aeroplanes somewhere over Africa.

Right now, all I see from you on the point is that you don't want Johnny Foreigner here.
