'Amber' Rudd 'Green Lights' Uncontrolled Immigration
Amber Rudd it was who confirmed what UKIP have been saying since the EU
referendum a year last June, which is that the Tory government have no intention
of honouring their 'tens of thousands' net immigration pledge.
With net immigration running at 250,000 a year (significantly higher
under the Tories than Labour) the Home Office, since 2010 run by Theresa May and
now Amber Rudd is kowtowing to big business, to keep the borders open after we
leave the EU and allow in high levels of low skilled workers to keep down wages
and deprive British workers of job opportunities and higher wages.
UKIP's Immigration Spokesman John Bickley said: "Under the Tories net
immigration is running much higher than it was under Labour. The Tories have
completely failed to bring net immigration down to their promised 'tens of
thousands' per year. It is clear they have misled the public and are more
interested in keeping wages low for the multi-nationals and their fat cat
donors.
Population growth is running at 400% per decade more than it was in the
'70's and it is blindingly obvious that this together with uncontrolled
immigration is putting enormous pressure on housing and public services, such as
GP appointments, hospital beds, access to urgent treatments, school places and
social housing. Whilst increased house building is necessary, to cope with the
millions of immigrants that have come here since Labour opened the floodgates,
only by setting a net zero immigration target over five years can the UK have
any chance of improving people's quality of life, especially those at the bottom
end of society".
