Something puzzles me here - why would you NOT expect a Labour government to be for mass immigration? A liberal approach to immigration is a basic tenet of left wing socialist attitudes and if you don't believe me, just go and talk to an average left wing socialist. Why do you think left wing Labour councillors keep very quiet about the subject (and did so even back in the days when they were posting on here ten-to-the-dozen)? Why do you think Gordon Brown called the woman who raised concerns about immigration a "bigot"?
I've never understood the attitude that prevails on here - this hankering after a proper socialist government, but somehow expecting them to introduce Enoch Powellite policies on immigration or right wing Tory "hang 'em, whip 'em and flog 'em" policies on law and order. It'll never happen!
