Low-skilled workers from outside the EU were yesterday banned from Britain as the Government finally admitted worries about immigration are not confined to 'Alf Garnetts'.

The Home Office - which said it could not ignore public alarm over immigration - also unveiled plans to stop foreigners entering the country on a marriage visa if they fail an English test.

In a further move targeting arranged marriages which take place in India and Pakistan, the age at which a British citizen can bring a husband or wife into the country from abroad will be raised to 21.

Immigration Minister Liam Byrne said Britain is not a nation of 'Alf Garnetts' - a reference to the racist television comedy character.

He said the public has legitimate concerns which need addressing, before conceding: "We ignore concerns about the wider impact of immigration at our peril."


I would comment but to discuss immigration is to be a racist.
