We must restrict immigration to improve working-class lives, says Simon Tisdall .
But critics of immigration often support policies that harm British workers, he says.
As individuals, workers possess little power, while employers impose their will on workforce.
Many studies show the importance of unionisation in raising wages, improving conditions and reducing inequality.
Universal credit is well below that which is necessary to cover essentials such as food, utilities, and vital household items.
Yet, again, many of those hostile to immigration are also hostile to claimants and support welfare austerity.
This should not surprise us, given the long history of a common contempt for migrants and the poor.
