Keith - you are again misinterpreting what was said in the election.
They did not say or suggest "they would stop all this immigration" they said they would reduce non-EU immigration from hundreds of thousands as it was under Labour to tens of thousands. Nothing was said over EU immigration though in the fog of a election claims and counter claims there was a great deal of misinformation put around. This was cleared up with figures after the election fever was out of the way. Cable and the LDs are trying to water down the attempt to bring non-EU immigration under control.
EU immigration is another matter but it is a two way affair, plenty of Brits go to France, Spain and other places both to work and to retire. That said the influx from Eastern Europe got out of hand because Labour did not take advantage of a one-off opportunity when the Eastern Europe countries joined to limit their immigration here for a transitional period, other EU countries did and benefited at our expense.
