How To: Setup XP-Mode on Win 7 Basic, Premium

Essentially, Windows XP Mode is a fully functional version of Windows XP that operates within Windows 7, much like how Parallels Desktop works on the Mac. By allowing users to seamlessly run Windows XP applications within Windows 7, application compatibility problems become virtually a thing of the past.

Voters: Immigration was too high under Labour. 78% of people - including three quarters of Labour voters - think the last Labour government admitted too many immigrants into Britain Following the government’s Immigration Bill launch last week, which includes proposals to charge immigrants for using the NHS, force private landlords to quiz tenants about their immigration status and restrict bank accounts for illegal immigrants, Labour leader Ed Miliband claimed that “low skilled immigration was too fast” when his party was last in government.

Voters: Immigration was too high under Labour

YouGov finds overwhelming agreement on this, even amongst Labour voters. 78% of British adults agree in a poll for the Migration Matters Trust that the last Labour government admitted too many immigrants into Britain. How hostility to immigration has grown. In the past many people have had nuanced views on immigration.

How hostility to immigration has grown

YouGov’s latest survey for Prospect finds a sharp change. Immigration has always been a contentious issue. However, in the past, many people have combined dislike of the scale of immigration with a recognition that they help Britain’s economy and keep vital public services going. British the most worried about Bulgarians and Romanians. The British are much more concerned about an influx of Bulgarians and Romanians than their French or German counterparts Last month figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) showed that the number of Romanians and Bulgarians working in the UK had risen by 26%between April and June.

All immigration not equal. British voters are content with the level of immigration when it comes to foreign students and skilled workers - and a third of Britons think foreign-born workers are more hard-working than workers born here In May the Office of National Statistics (ONS) reported that net migration had fallen “by a third”, or by about 80,000 people, in the 12 months to September 2012.

All immigration not equal

The figures also showed that most of the change came from a drop of 56,000 in the number of people coming to study at British universities, although at 190,000 arrivals over the course of the year, foreign students were still the largest immigrant group. However foreign students, along with highly educated, skilled workers are two groups towards which Britons are relatively welcoming, new YouGov research can reveal. In comparison, Britons tend to favour less immigration or none at all when it comes to people who are migrating to join family members in the UK or work in low-paid jobs.

As changes to immigration rules take centre stage in the Queen’s Speech, a tracking poll of the issues most important to voters finds immigration at highest point since June 2010 The coalition’s legislative agenda for the year was laid out today by the Queen in a government-prepared speech given at the State Opening of Parliament.

The centre piece of the speech was the announcement of a new bill aimed at reforming British immigration policy, which includes measures that would restrict migrants’ access to benefits and the NHS, require landlords to check the immigration status of tenants, and bar illegal immigrants from obtaining driving licences. Immigrants, welfare and the NHS. YouGov President, Peter Kellner, analyses how all the main parties are nervous about the politics of immigration All the main parties are nervous about the politics of immigration, and figures in YouGov’s latest poll for the Sunday Times suggest why.

Few of us think that immigrants generally play a positive role in British life. The incessant, and often badly-informed stories, year after year, about crimes committed by black offenders, migrant families who ‘jump the housing list’ and ‘welfare tourists’ who come here to hoover up generous benefits – they have taken their toll.
