REMEMBER WHEN LABOUR GOT THE BLAME FOR ALL THE IMMIGRATION?

Well, yes, you probably do.

Because we heard over and over again how they let anyone and everyone in in the hopes that they would all be poor and vote Labour.

Well it seems, according to ex Liberal Democrat Minister David Laws, (as revealed in his book) that the Tories aren't any different. The Foreign Secretary suggested a Schengen visa. And Cameron said he would fire anyone who leaked it. 

But Mr Laws is no longer fireable... and in any case, he is a Liberal Democrat and this can only do the Tories harm, so it's win win for him: sells the book and gives the Tories some grief.
Thinks: "Will I *dob the Tories in to the press, or...will I dob them in by writing a book?"
The Home Office, whose priorities are set by ministers, seem not to be overly interested in migration. No wonder they make such a mess of it.

Not been a good week for the Tories. First we find that while they have been blaming the EU for not standing against Chinese steel imports, the truth of the matter is that they have been blocking German, French and Italian efforts to curb the influx in order not to upset the Chinese. Embarrassing.

Now we find that they didn't make immigration a priority and wanted to be in Schengen, despite making it an election promise to drastically reduce the number of immigrants.

Seems to me you can't much trust them.

* For non-Scots readers, the verb 'to dob in' means 'to inform on'.
