Jonathan Portes argues (rightly) that the immigration debate should not be about sending a small number 'back', but how to integrate those who risk everything to get here... because actually, as overall migration shows, we have a real need for migrants in our workforce due to the country's shifting demographic & skills profile.
We know we can make integration work because our multicultural society is all about recognising difference *while* integrating!
