UK Immigration Minister admits harming own children with policies.

Shadow home secretary Chris Grayling said: ‘The biggest impact from immigration in recent years has been on public services. It seems extraordinary to have the immigration minister now admitting that – and from his own experience – but yet still defending the policy that caused the problems in the first place.’

The immigration minister has admitted that his own children have ’suffered’ because of the number of foreigners who have flooded into Britain.

In an extraordinary declaration, gaffe-prone Phil Woolas accepted the influx of migrants under Labour has taken a toll on local communities and services.

Confronted by an unemployed man on a BBC2 Newsnight special, he said: ‘We recognise that. My own family… children have suffered from that.’

Mr Woolas, who has two sons, has a house in Chiswick, south west London, and Oldham, Lancashire, which is his constituency.

It was not clear whether the minister was talking about class sizes or the pressure placed by migrants on school places or some other issue.
