It's a funny one as Cameron might be clever enough to realise that if he'd got limitations on freedom of movement that would a) harm the economy (although he had zero issues with Austerity doing the same thing, but that was a key ideological policy for him so maybe he was blind to it) and b) risk people realising that it's long term de-funding of the NHS that's causing the service to grind to a halt, not brown people, or people who sound funny even if they look quite like us.
i.e. it's very convenient for the Conservatives to have the current media narrative that it's forins causing all the ills of the UK, rather than those in charge. Compounded by the Labour party being almost totally silent on, well, anything but leadership issues (they may not be, and it's simply going unreported, but whilst this is a tragic indictment of the press, it also means that Labour is irrelevant to the current political situation).
