There was a decline from 2005 to 2010 in Labour votes (68%) among migrants and it may have persisted. Or it may not have.

Sure, why not. I bet that most are thinking of me as a nazi since I support Trump based on what has been posted earlier. Doesn't change the issue however. Seeings how your an open border guy an all, I bet that you have long ago removed all the locks on your doors to show support for that cause.

Well, the BBC does make up stuff on occasion, but that's not really relevant here.

Now. Produce 2015 data that shows migrants no longer vote Labour. Until you do the figures that we have are those of the 2005 and 2010 general election that show migrants overwhelmingly voting for Labour.

The main winners in the elections were UKIP (like Trump, not likely to be supported by migrants) and the SNP. Big losers: LibDems, and Labour in Scotland (likely due to the SNP).
Until we have data for 2015, your air is as hot as mine.

This is a presumption and is not followed up with any data. Hard data is needed. All previous data shows overwhelming migrant support for Labour. The report already showed the trend based on a study up to 2015 (you would need to look at the cited study). I don't know if there's concrete data for 2015 post-election w.r.t. minorities/migrants. More data will likely not convince you anyway. And that's based on the trend of your previous posts.
