	Ian Abley 11-11-2003-02 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Continued from the previous page, Ian Abley thinks that Jeff Rooker should be criticised for his treatment of immigrants, for presiding over the lack of housebuilding activity, and for keeping the failed Green Belt policy.
		Equally busy preventing immigration out of faux-concern for the immigrant, Rooker has some experience of housing: in the 1980s he was Labour's spokesman for housing, enjoying excellent relations with the House Builders Federation, and being the principal speaker at the HBF Annual Luncheon in 1986.
		Rooker knows there is insufficient housebuilding, but constrains development through Green Belt and a presumption against green field development on Britain's surplus farmland.

		Jeff Rooker faces criticism for being honest about the poor quality of much of the Green Belt, when Ian Abley thinks he should be criticised for his treatment of immigrants, and for presiding over the lack of housebuilding activity.
		Whether Rooker likes it or not, it is also a fact that the regeneration of Britain's cities - indeed the entire British construction industry - is dependent upon immigrant workers and the offspring of earlier immigrants.
		Rooker needs asylum seekers to be working in construction, but wouldn't let them do so on an equal status with other workers.
