Repealed[edit]

When was it repealed? It is written about in the past tense so I presume it is repealed. Nurg (talk) 10:57, 6 February 2010 (UTC) Never. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.166.10.172 (talk) 08:46, 16 April 2010 (UTC) The 1971 law is still in force, in effect.[reply]

1970 manifesto[edit]

The 1971 law was enacted shortly after the Conservatives had promised to restrict immigration in their 1970 manifesto. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.166.10.172 (talk) 08:45, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
