Two themes stand out, Slag Blair at All Times & Imigration, Immigration, Immigration.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TONY Blair will steal the Tory clothes on immigration today — by claiming “it is not racist” to talk about asylum. The PM will promise a 12.5 per cent rise in immigration officers within four months of a Labour election victory.

And he will pledge to boost undercover officers at foreign airports to weed out cheats attempting to board planes to Britain.

The £20million move will be unveiled in a speech as Mr Blair tries to outgun the Tories on the issue.

Stealing from Tory leader Michael Howard, the Premier will say: “It’s not racist to talk about asylum and immigration. These are genuine concerns to people.

“The question is whether you have policies to deal with concerns. It’s not racist to want your government to do something about asylum and immigration — and we are.”

It will be the first time Mr Blair has entered the row over illegal immigration since the election war began.
