While some of the impetus behind it may well be tabloid driven there is a point to that pledge, and it appears to have gone straight over Abbott's head. As Ed tried to explain the other night, the big problem with immigration is that it is giving employers and/or BTL landlords a charter to exploit both the native and incoming population; so an immigration policy (and however much we might not be happy that there has to be one, there
does have to be one) that is built on that premise, that seeks to manage things so that people are not exploited and get a fair deal wherever they come from, has to be worth looking at, yes? Abbott is playing to the gallery, yet again, and really not helping to take the debate forward at all.
