SiC makes the front pages (2) Morning Star

We've had supportive articles in the Telegraph, the Guardian, the Independent, the Spectator, the Tablet, the Voice -- and to that roster we can now add the very fine editorial in Tuesday's Morning Star, described as the UK's only Socialist paper. It sure puts to shame all those left-wing blogs out there who regard SiC as a bourgeois conspiracy.

Anyone got a pic of the front page we can put up? LET THEM STAY, runs the splash headline, followed by: 'Tens of thousands march to demand "earned amnesty" for migrant workers" and a piece of expert reporting by -- yes, really -- Paul Haste.
LONDON’S migrant workers emerged from the shadows yesterday to take over the capital’s streets and demand an end to their precarious and undocumented existence.
is how it begins. Read the rest here.

The editorial, entitled simply 'Justice for Immigrants', lets fly at Sir Andrew (and who are we to disagree?) -
The case for offering amnesty to illegal immigrants is overwhelming. So overwhelming, in fact, that pretty much the only people opposing it are the ranting extremists at the Migrationwatch think tank, whose credibility withers more and more with every tirade of nonsense they publish.
- but isn't "think tank" a little too charitable?
