Gordon Brown says immigration is good for the UK and has rejected suggestions that an annual limit is needed.

The PM was responding to a report by a House of Lords committee saying record immigration had had "little or no" impact on people's economic well-being.

Mr Brown said the concerns raised were being tackled by a new points-based system that will allow only highly skilled workers into the UK.

And unlimited unskilled refugees - and illegal immigrants.

"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
"

From William Shakespeare's "Macbeth"
