Need to focus on issues not language in immigration debate, says senior Tory

Shadow energy and equalities secretary Claire Coutinho has told Sky News that a "focus on language" in debating immigration is stopping discussion on the "substantive point". She was responding to Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe's comments where he said the UK has been "colonised by immigrants" - and his subsequent apology citing "my choice of language has offended some people". Coutinho said that while she wouldn't have used Ratcliffe's language and understands why some people are offended, she said: "Whenever people try and talk about immigration... lots of people then focus on language. We have a big debate about the words that are used, and it means that we never really get onto the substantive point. "And the substantive point, which I think lots of people in the country feel, is that not only has immigration been too high, but particularly in certain areas, integration has been lacking."
