Record levels of immigration have had "little or no impact" on the economic well-being of Britons, an influential House of Lords committee has said.

Benefits of immigration

It says competition from immigrants has had a negative impact on the low paid and training for young UK workers, and has contributed to high house prices.

The use of GDP as the measure of immigration's economic contribution was "irrelevant and misleading".

It went on to add: "The available evidence suggests that immigration has had a small negative impact on the lowest-paid workers in the UK and a small positive impact on the earnings of higher-paid workers."

And there was a "clear danger" immigration had hit training and apprenticeships offered to British workers.

This report is well worth a read - however many of us have been saying this for the last 5 years. It's blindingly obvious. So why does the Labour government insist on pushing ahead? The reason is that the Labour party is infested with hand wringing liberals, leftists who believe in spreading wealth to anyone, except those who have worked for it, and people who just plain hate the united kingdom.

The working man needs to wake up - Labour is his enemy not his friend.
