Jeremy Corbyn: Talking of migrants...
Jeremy Corbyn, please say loud and clear, over and over again (because I know that this is what you think and believe):
1. Migrants didn't impose the austerity wage freeze, cuts to the NHS, education budgets, closures of libraries. That was Osborne.
2. If migrants are on low wages, that's because employers are breaking the minimum wage law. Get the employers.
3. Migrants didn't bring in council house sell-offs, migrants weren't the ones who stopped building new council houses.
4. Migrants didn't gamble with trillions, lose it down the black hole of lousy loans, nor get us to bale out the gamblers.
