Most Britons Want Tougher Immigration Laws

Polling Data: 63% say Laws on immigration should be much tougher

Many adults in Britain believe their country should enact stricter guidelines for immigrants, according to a poll by Ipsos-MORI. 63 per cent of respondents believe the laws in immigration should be much tougher.

In April 2005, as part of the governing Labour party’s election manifesto, prime minister Tony Blair announced the introduction of an immigration points system. The plan divides would-be immigrants into five tiers according to skills and job offers. The government claims the new system will eventually bring an end to the migration of low-skilled workers from outside the European Union (EU) into Britain.

On Aug. 22, the British government revealed that 427,095 persons from Eastern Europe have been allowed to work in Britain since May 2004. Conservative party immigration spokesman Damian Green urged for a change in existing guidelines, saying, “Controlled immigration makes life much better for everyone involved.”

"As the National Journal's Ron Brownstein has been reporting, white America is increasingly alienated and distrustful of all our major economic and political power centers - the banks, big corporations, the government. And, for the first time in our lifetimes outside the South, white racial consciousness has visibly begun to rise."
