CONSERVATIVE PARTY'S IMMICRATION POLICY ANNOUNCED IN MANIFESTO ARE THOSE LAID DOWN YEAR AGO BY SHADOW HOME SECRETARY WILLIE WHITELAX.
IT ASSURES THAT RIGHTS OF ALL PRITISH CITIZENS LEGALLY SETTLED ARE EQUAL BEFORE LAW WHATEVER THEIR RACE, COLOUR OR CREED.
CONSERVATIVES WILL INTRODUCE NEW BRITISH NATIONALITY ACT TO DEFINE ENTITLEMENT TO BRITISH CITIZENSHIP. IT ILL NOT ADVERSELY EFFECT RIGHT OF ANYONE NOW PERMANENTLY SETTLED HERE. THEY PROPOSE TO END PRACTICE OF ALLOWING PERMENENT SETTLEMENT FOR THOSE WHO COME ON TEMPORARILY STAY: LIMIT ENTRY OF PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS AND CHILDREN OVER 18 TO SMALL NUMBER OF URGENT COMPASSIONATE CASES: END CONCESSION TO HUSBANDS AND MALE FIANCESS: SEVERELY RESTRICT ISSUE OF WORK PERMITS: INTRODUCE REGISTER OF THOSE COMMONWEALTH #IVES AND CHILDREN ENTITLED TO ENTRY FOR SETTLEMENT LANDER 1971 IMMIGRATION ACT: INTRODUCE CUOTA SYSTEM COVERING EVERYONE OUTSIDE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY TO CONTROL ALL i ENTRY FOR SETTLEMENT: TAKE FIRM ACTION AGAINST ILLECAL IMMIGRANTS AND OVER-ST YES AND HELP THOSE IMMIGRANTS WHO GENUINELY WISH TO LEAVE THIS COUNTRY BUT THERE CAN PL NO QUESTION OF COMPULSORY REPATRIATION.
MANIFESTO ALSO STATES THAT ETHNIC MINORITIES HAVE MADE VALUABLE CONTRIBUTION TO LIFE OF NATION, BUT FIRM IMMIGRATION CONTROL IN FUTURE WAS ESSENTIAL IF GOOD COMMUNITY RELATIONS WERE TO BE ACHIEVED. IT WOULD END FEARS ABOUT LEVELS OF IMMIGRATION AND WOULD REMOVE FROM THOSE SETTLED, AND IN MANY CASES BORN HERE, LABEL OF IMMIGRANT.
MANIFESTO WILL BE EXPRESS AIRMAILED TO YOU.+++
