Ah yet another "may" statement from a Government minister.
Be careful the anger felt by many on this matter may prove your undoing on both sides of the commons.

Bolted horses and closed doors

Paddy H, Edinburgh,

What, and deny access to the only people that will vote for them in the forthcoming elections? I doubt it.

Our ancesters did not die in two world wars in order to hand our once wonderfull country over a few years later. No point in playing musical chairs with these parties any more. We will be voting for a the one party that would pull out of the EU, and then stop all further immigration. This is Urgent

immigrants already here will outbreed the native British within a generation or two, condemning the natives to second class citizenship Keith Bentham, wigan, uk when do we immigrants become native british? my family been here for a thousand years but we are not native.

Graham Bromley, Rotherham, england

Too little too late. New Labour have zero credibility in this.

Their failure to maintain border control is the number one reason for their spectacular unpopularity. The historians will judge them, unfavourably.

What good are the Tories same monster, Time for real change.

How do you know when a politician is lying?

When they TALK about controlling immmigration.

Immigration allows politicians to import a social revolution, while at the same time big business gets cheap labour. Past and present (and future) governments have all allowed immigration.

peter, Birmingham,

Capping immigrration isn't even up for discussion.!

The issue is how we can repatriate the millions of asylum seekers and illegals -I suggest recruiting the Neaoplitian mafia -you know it makes sense.

Gallous George, London, England

It doesn't matter if immigration is now zero. The immigrants already here will outbreed the native British within a generation or two, condemning the natives to second class citizenship. Forced Islamic conversion and the powerless existence of a futureless minority.

Keith Bentham, wigan, uk

Could this be anything to do with the expected big gains for the BNP coming in next June's local and Euro elections? And would you trust the Labour Party with the country's immigration policy? I wouldn't trust them with the economy - which was supposed to 'benefit' from immigration remember.....

Paul Williams, London, England

"....political risk..." What political risk?

Veronica, Manchester,

Is it me or is this just a little too late?

Keith, Beaconsfield,

Just another idea that they will have pinched from the Tories.
