It's a bit late now

Question Time tonight from Birmingham showed Labour's Douglas Alexander running down the Conservative's "capping" proposals on EU migrants.

He told us that Labour had a much better plan. They would employ the same "points system" as Australia. This would, he alleged, allow the Government to 'filter in' the better qualified immigrants, and 'filter out' those less qualified.

It's a shame Labour didn't think about bringing this system in all those years ago when they opened our borders to all comers and created the "black economy" they've left us with today.
