Apartheid immigration points policy ‘re-introduces colour bar by stealth’

07-03-2006

The Government is condoning apartheid by effectively re-introducing the colour bar INTO phpbb_British immigration policy, U.K. Independence Party MEP Nigel Farage said today (7.3.06), following the launch of the Government’s new points based immigration system.

Mr Farage said that the exclusion of the 200,000 EU citizens who arrived in the UK each year ‘made a nonsense of the entire system’, and allowed untrammelled white immigration whilst placing serious constraints on non-white immigration from outside the EU.

“The idea of an immigration system which applies only to certain applicants should fill us with horror. The points system of immigration is one which UKIP supports wholeheartedly, but only so long as it applies to all immigrants. It is fundamental in our society that we are all equal before the law, but apparently white, eastern European immigrants are now more equal than black, African ones.

“I find it unbelievable that a Government which contains so many ministers who fought apartheid in South Africa are happy to introduce it in the UK.

“Our nation has historic links with the Commonwealth, and yet now Polish plumbers and Hungarian bricklayers will have an inbuilt advantage over Pakistani doctors and Ghanian nurses. We have always believed that immigration should be decided on the basis of space, not race, and yet clearly neither New Labour nor Blue Labour share this view. UKIP alone believes that we should aim for a fair, points based system which creates net zero immigration: the numbers arriving should equal the number leaving the UK.”

UKIP playing "Race card". That is a pretty sad development :?

It almost looks like the whole thing is England's curse.

I disagree our immigration policy does discriminate in favour of mainly white countries. I don't think we should be silent about that.
Of course for some stupid reason we don't talk about why we want zero immigration.

David, I guess far more UKIP members will disagree with me on this issue. And concerning your remark that your country discriminates in favour of white countries ... your cities doesn't look like so. It is a curse.

We didn't use to discriminate in favour of white countries - we did the reverse.
However, because we used to favour ex commonwealth (mainly non white) immigrants does not mean we should discriminate.
We should treat all immigrants the same - is their presence beneficial. If yes, they should be allowed in, if not they shouldn't.
[The definition of beneficial obviously is complicated].

No need to be racist about it.

Keep the lot out white and black.

We need a nil immigration policy and to reduce the population to a comfortable size, removing the housebuilding pressure on the SE.

This country was 10 times as great and powerful when we had half the population.
