Labour Caves In To BNP Ideology Again
Posted on February 22, 2009
The government continues its disgusting subordination to the BNP-led concensus that economic and associated social problems in Britain are caused by migrants. The Home Secretary has torn herself away from filling in expense claim forms to announce new restrictions in the already discriminatory and unjust immigration ‘points system’, which will further limit the entry of migrants and their families from outside the EU. Obviously, the announcement is a sop to the right, which fails to acknowledge, let alone address, the real causes of economic and social inequality. It is not workers who are to blame for the nightmare of capitalism, who have insisted on the casualisation of labour or use unemployment as a weapon to force down wages and conditions.
Tory Damian Green has predictably managed to outdo Smith in grotesqueness, responding that she is ‘tinkering around the edges’ of the system. We are confident that he isn’t advocating overturning capitalist relations of production.
