Comment on Revelations about Migration Observatory
15 April, 2013

Commenting on this weekend’s revelations about the Migration Observatory, Sir Andrew Green, Chairman of Migration Watch UK, said:

"The Migration Observatory press release avoided the central point, namely their involvement in a programme called ‘Changing Minds’ together with a number of other pro-immigration organisations.

I was astonished to discover that they are part of a coordinated effort by a group of pro-immigration charities which is clearly a propaganda operation designed to change public opinion on the present massive levels of immigration.

The Migration Observatory has declared their three major funders but have not declared the common objective behind the funding."
