The Green Party has condemned the alleged Conservative Party manifesto pledge to cut net migration to tens of thousands [1].
Jonathan Bartley, Green Party co-leader, said:
“The Tories have repeatedly failed to reach this target since it was first in their manifesto in 2010 but in the process have split up families and encouraged hostility towards migrants.
“It’s time the Conservative Party stopped trying to pin the blame for unemployment, the housing shortage and NHS overcrowding on migrants and acknowledged the abject failure of its own policies, cuts and severe underinvestment.”
