If David Blunkett has his way, immigrants will, in future, have to swear an oath of allegiance to the Queen - something established citizens of this country have never been required to do.
Although MPs have to swear such allegiance before being allowed to take their seats in Parliament, it is alleged many do so while crossing their fingers behind their back - so much for loyalty to the monarchy.
Before making this demand of immigrants, Mr Blunkett should extend it to the entire electorate. He may be surprised by the reaction this would provoke.
