Labour to invite 100,000 foreigners a year into the UK - IMMIGRATION controls are to be relaxed for the first time in 30 years to allow up to 100,000 foreign workers a year to settle in Britain. The Government has decided to make the most significant changes to the immigration system since 1971 because of a severe skills shortage among British workers. In 1971 a blanket ban on immigration was introduced, excluding only asylum-seekers and those with relatives in Britain, following racial unrest and high-profile calls for controls, including Enoch Powell's infamous "rivers of blood" speech.

History of Ladybird Books

Ladybird books are known and loved the world over. For millions of people, they bring back the golden days of childhood - learning to read, discovering the magic of books, and growing up.

The very first Ladybird book ever was produced by a jobbing printer called Wills & Hepworth during the First World War. The company, based in Loughborough, Leicestershire, began to publish 'pure and healthy literature' for children, registering the Ladybird logo in 1915. Despite the company's claims, however, those books would no longer be politically correct. In the ABC Picture Book, for example, A stood for armoured train!
