Proceeding contribution from Lord Lilley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 March 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Managed Migration.


Managed Migration

I entirely agree that it is quite wrong to base any policy on abuse of the character of immigrants or would-be immigrants to this country. Does the Minister agree that it is equally wrong in an election or otherwise to abuse people who believe that it is none the less right to impose restrictions on immigration by saying that they are racist? That happened time and again up and down the country, when Labour candidates stood against us, and against me in particular.
