Lord Turner, who is Chairman of the Committee on Climate Change, challenged the notion that large scale immigration can be justified on economic grounds in a paper titled ‘Do We Need More Immigrants and Babies?’
The analysis presented to the House of Lord Economic Affairs Committee comes within days of Immigration Minister Liam Byrne announcing a points-based system for immigrants from India and other non-EU countries.
A former director of the influential Confederation of British Industry, Lord Turner rejected arguments that without immigrants Britain would face a shortage of workers.
If there were less immigrants in Britain, then those in the lowest paid jobs might receive more, he said, according to a report in The Daily Telegraph.
However, he said he that was not in favour of a total clampdown on immigration, which he believed could be partially justified on moral grounds, especially in terms of asylum seekers.

To Gaurav Goel, Why Punjab is not London or India at least Singapore?? answer is Naheru chacha and his Congress goonda gang which managed India with permit raaj as their private property for the 55 years out of the total 60 years, what do you expect? The progress India has made in the last 10-12 years is equal to 100 years, that too after getting an independence, with an empty treasury. Blame the gutless Kashmiri Brahmin blood of Naheru chacha, who prevented many many Indians from becoming TATAS, AMBANIS, AZIM PREMJIS Gujjus can run the nation well, just look at Gujarat or google who did what for the Washington DC, no hard feelings, it is good to debate as we are not backward muslims
There are two types of immigration: constructive and destructive. Hindus make constructive immigration, muslims make destructive immigration. Wherever muslims migrate, they behave like traitors. Others are always infidel for them and they soon become threat to the way of life of the host countries and also threat to the life of their citizens. In fact, it is always muslims, who have no fidelity towards the host countries. Whereas, Hindus get integrated with the host countries. They are never and nowhere threat to the host countries, even when they follow their own traditions. They learn from the host countries and share Hindu cultures with them, based on mutual respect and coexistence. For muslims, any innocent non-muslim is their sworn enemy, just because, according to an email passed to muhammad from their weird allah, "allah has granted hell to the unbelievers". And when he heard statements like "immigration not very beneficial", these statements are prejudiced by islamic immigration, and Hindus pay the price. If there were no islam, free movement in the world would have become a fundamental human right. And the current situation is that Hindus even need transit visa for UK, just because Hindus live with 150 millions muslims in India, and profiling based on religions is not politically correct, as of now. Considering current scenarios in the developed countries, Hindus must demand "Hindus personal laws" applicable to them as far as immigration and transiting is concerned. Hindus must not pay the price of misdeeds of followers of muhammad.
India will win the CB series
Not very beneficial?? how untrue, the natives of Britain stopped producing babies (only 1.5 children on average a couple ) and what ever the number of British youth are, they do not want to work hard, they want easy money and dreaming of becoming a pop star or a football player this has caused a huge shortage of workers in every field of industry, the vacancies are filled up by NOW East Europeans, that was done by Indians/Asians before, as the 3rd generations of Indians have high academic qualifications, they have moved up the ladder and become almost masters of Britain, by the way Indians in Britain have an average 2.5 children per couple, and just to add, as usual the lazy Pakees and Bangladeshis with 4.5 children per couple are at the bottom of the pile have academically achieved nothing, and good at causing trouble, the prison population of Britain consists of 10% criminal muslims, and very tiny percentage of Hindus and Sikhs in reality the foreigners are keeping Britain going
If Hindus and Sikhs are that intelligent and hardworking than Why not Punjab is London and India at the least Singapore? Don't live in dreams Flag flyer. These Goras are very smart. They do everything. They do drugs, s**, singing , dancing but when time comes they become masters of technology also whereas Indians are bloody IT coolies and think as if they are running the economy. Lets take it this way - India indegenously made Atomic bomb in 75 but still we are begging to US for technology. Why? I guess IIT. IISc on which Indians take pride are worst institutes in the world. They are not even in top 200. Students from Indian colleges just know how to ace an exam but when comes to creativity ther are ZERO.
I just can’t disagree more.The magic of west lies in opportunities it presents. Come visit Silicon Valley, and see how immigrants have created Yahoo, Google, Juniper....the list goes on.The race and ethnicity has nothing to do with creativity and intelligence. It all depends on how a person applies oneself when growing up and after. And that is where Indians score.
In Singapore the immigartion has been controlled and weeds out any illegals.No body is disputing the cost benefit advantage, the selective immigrants make to the local economy and dynamic contributions. The problem with U.K. and France, is that they allowed immigrants willy nilly.Come and witness the carnage and mayhem the illegal and unsavoury immigrants are causing in France and U.K.Morover they a drain on Social security system,where the tax payer begrudge,their hard erned taxes being squandered. Get the facts in context.
The UK, unlike Singapore, is not an immigrant nation.Hence perception is different.The nations after careful cost benefit analysis need to take a considered view as to why immigrants should not fill up any socio-economic gap.After all, the Earth is One.
Chickens are coming home to roost. Years of uncontrolled immigration, allowing all TOM,DICK and HARRY,is creating a massive social rupture,drain on resources,like health,eduactional,housing,transport and social services.ame is happening in France.India must learn from these debacles,otherwise India will not be able to progress and develop.
