Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on Points-Based Immigration System.


Points-Based Immigration System

The hon. Gentleman may well be right about the past few decades, but he might be disregarding previous episodes in our history. Certainly, the Huguenot immigration to this country was proportionately far greater than anything that we have seen since. That is quite astonishing, given that the Huguenots were French speakers.
