The data disagrees.

More statistics plucked out of someones arse for a Guardian story?


No.

The Independent - the Guardians slightly stupid little brother in co-operation

"collection of essays published recently by the IPPR underlined the role of
Gordon Brown’s Treasury in this affair. A high level of immigration made
economic growth look better and helped keep wages and, therefore, inflation
down."

You can keep them. Real world wages have been going down for a number

That could well be true. Doesn't mean that it's related to immigration.


Well, climate change might not be related to man made CO2. But lets be honest,
it probably is. Ditto above.


and thats not just heresay, its based on first hand
knowledge of people who work in them.


That's a beautiful sampling method you've chosen. It's pretty much

society, right?
