Subject: RE: BS: What about the UKIP then?
All parties have stated the need to reduce immigration.
The Office for National Statistics said 163,000 more people came to live in the UK for 12 months or more than had left, compared with 247,000 the year before. Direct quote from here. The article states quite clearly that net immigration dropped by a third in the year ended June 2012 compared to the previous year.
Just who is trying to kid who here? Immigration is going down so why try to cause a panic over it? To mis-quote Mark Twain, there are liars, damned liars and politicians.
