Description[?]:
| For the BPP, this nation is always at its best when we are open and outward-facing. We seek to ensure the labour market provides jobs that every worker can build a life on, ensure work visas are processed quickly and efficiently, and ensure education and training in schools, colleges, universities and on-the-job to equip all of our workers for these jobs. People who come to Baltusia, seeking to follow on our proud tradition of providing asylum, should be allowed to work if they can, should be given decent benefits equivalent to those of everyone else, and decent housing. We must demand that human rights and human feelings are respected. Charlie Parnell, Shadow Home Secretary, BPP |
