Woolas Has Head In The Sand Over Illegal Immigration – Huhne
Responding to the comments made today by Phil Woolas to the Home Affairs Committee, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Huhne said:
“Phil Woolas is taking the ostrich’s approach to illegal immigration – sticking his head in the sand and pretending the problems aren’t happening.
“He doesn’t even know how many illegal immigrants are living in Britain but still promises to deport them all.
“He accepts that a detention centre in Calais is not the solution but still intends to spend millions building one.
“This is not a solution to our border security. It’s half measures to make it look like the Government is taking action.”
