ONE of Labour's most senior figures has written an open letter to Ukip supporters today, apologising for the party's previous views on immigration concerns and urging them to "keep an open mind".

Shadow Justice Minister Sadiq Khan concedes Labour has been "too quick to dismiss concerns about immigration, or even worse - accused people of prejudice" in the letter, which was sent exclusively to Express.co.uk.

Mr Khan lists a range of policies designed to entice former Labour voters thinking of voting for Ukip back to his party.

The letter comes just days after Ukip saw its number of councillors across England rise by 161, eating into Labour support in Essex and the North.

Below is the letter in full:

95.4% of the UK is still Non Muslim. Three parts of the UK (Scotland, NI, Wales) have less than 1% Muslim populations.

To paraphrase Twain, news of the UK’s conquest has been greatly exaggerated.

p.s London isn’t the UK. Or even just England.

But that unassimilated 4.6% Muslim minority punches well above its weight, and the UK’s laws have been so twisted that once-tough Tommy must take whatever beating that Mohammed inflicts. It is a world turned upside down, with no correction in sight.
