This is a lot worse than some mild offensive banter..


Don't talk about migrants, Labour chiefs warn MPs: Activists encouraged to 'move conversation on' as part of strategy to combat Ukip

• MPs told to 'move the conversation on when asked about immigration'
• Suggestion is in a strategy document designed to combat Ukip threat
• Activists encouraged to talk about topics on which Labour is stronger
• 'Campaigning Against Ukip' distributed to MPs in danger of losing votes
• Ed Miliband to attack bosses exploiting migrant workers in speech

Probably Labours best strategy tbh since they are weak on immigration.

And the reason they are weak is that they dont talk about it...

Because they know they can't win any debate on immigration.They need to hope the immigration topic dies before the election(which it won't).It will be their weakest link.

Well for not wanting to talk about it,it would seem they have done little else recently with their announcements on immigration.

Actually, I would love it if all the parties didn'y talk about it so much and especially the demonising and prejudicial way UKIP and the Conservatives do.

I wish immigration was taken out of party politics and not used as a political football,find an agreed concensus on the issue, get it in place and have the continuity of it going on whichever party gains power at any time.
