bringing you each week voices of people concerned with the topics and troubles of today Are Immigrants Vital to the Economy?
Two and a half million Commonwealth, Irish, and foreign immigrants live in Britain. One out of every twelve people in our labour force was born abroad. Is this ' brain-and-brawn gain ' offset by adverse effects in other directions? Are wages depressed by an influx of cheap labour? Do immigrants add to inflation and worsen the balance of payments? Could the hospital and transport services operate without them?
