"Migrants.... are overall more likely to be in work and have slightly higher wages. It follows almost automatically that their short-term impact is to boost, not reduce, GDP per capita. Indeed, that’s exactly what the ONS says.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

There’s one slight issue with Labour’s immigration plans: they’re completely untethered from reality | Jonathan Portes
