YVETTE Cooper tells the people of Atherton that they got immigration wrong when in Government and they do listen to the concerns of the people.

This goes to show just how out of touch she is. They had 13 years of being politically correct whilst allowing mass immigration into the country and now suddenly they realise that people are concerned.

I believe the crass remark about UKIP and Lenny Henry just goes to show the depths the Labour Party will sink to. If this is now the only negative thing they can dredge up about UKIP to try and prevent people from voting for them it shows that they are worried about the public acceptance of UKIP.

They have branded UKIP as racist for years and only now are they treating them like a real threat. If we were to list the numerous gaffs Labour politicians have made over the years we would need the full edition of the Bolton News.

Who took us into Iraq to establish democracy? Yes you got it right, Labour. Iraq is in total turmoil as is Libya and Afghanistan.

Who sold the Gold reserves off and who left the country with the biggest deficit since the war and also left a note in the treasury saying there is no money left? Who brought in private medical companies to provide the units on B&Q car park which many people think are run by the NHS? Ten more points if you got that right, it was Labour. I think Ms Cooper you got more than immigration wrong.
