racedo,
The he let in too many Eastern Europeans .................true but given overwhelming majority of those who came in actually work for a living and their taxes pay for the 7 million incumbents living here on the dole, welfare, sickness and other schemes then hard one to blame him on.
That appears to be turning into another popular misconception. Mrs CK's BFF (to use current terminology) is in a north central england job centre. The %age of non-UK national "clients" (not allowed to call them claimants any more) is now approaching the halfway mark.
Yes there are plenty of Uk nationals that could do with a boot up the "harris" but to paint it as simplistically as incumbents sponging off the state is, as I say, a misconception.
That is something that can be laid at the feet of Bliar, Brown etc, something that even they have admitted was a mistake.
