Immigration

I'm not normally one to agree with the Conservative party over, well, anything.
But for once they might have a point...

Surely it can't be racist to have controls on immigration...after all, can we really have a situation where an Australian spindoctor with a track record for incitement to racism in his own country is free to come over here and peddle the same brand of nasty politics. Most famously, he diliberately exploited claims that refugees were throwing their babies into the sea (and thus compelling the Australian navy to rescuse them, take them to shore and thus allowing the refugees to enter Australia)...this was, of course, subsequently found out to be total bollocks; but only after the conservative PM John Howard had secured an unlikely poll win. We can't even give Crosby marks for originality - the "slaughter of the innocent" is an old chesnut as battle cries go.

I am thus joing Michael Howard in campaigning for tighter controls on the rights of Australian spindoctors to work in this country and take jobs away from empoverished British campaign staff that, frankly, need the work (anyone who's seen Hague's ex-press secretary Amanda Platell on her dire TV chatshow with Piers Moron will know what I mean)...

Actually the good news is that the Crosby "dog-whistle" tactic seems not to be working, if anything making Labour supporters more likely to turn out and vote...however, Crosby stands to make a tidy sum win or lose. And apparently, he's off to New Zealand on May 6th - another day, another election campaign...
