Why It Matters


There's an idea floating round, one believed even by normally sensible people, that immigration control is some sort of selfish dog-in-the-manger deal. Us Brits keeping all the prosperity for ourselves, instead of (if you're a Liberal) sharing it all out amongst the world's unfortunates (those that desert their country and come here anyway) or (Libertarians) allowing talented people to come and enrich us with their skills (if riding in the back of a lorry counts as skill). Well, Laban Tall sums up perfectly why we need our borders sealed.
