The immigration issue only came to major prominence when the numbers had increased massively giving rise to the BNP.That’s when the government started listening as they were worried about the prospect of the far right gaining popularity(and wanted to gain public support).
Blair and Brown basically had an almost open door policy.
If it had have been sensibly controlled earlier on then it wouldn’t be such an issue today.
