Free movement of labour yes, you need a job within 3 months and there a restrictions on benefits.
But after 5 years you get permanent residence and there is right to family reunification. It's a lot more liberal immigration system than what most of the world has.
If unions back "British jobs for British workers" by supporting more restrictions on immigrant labourers like me then xenophobia is perhaps not the right term, but it's hardly solidarity with immigrant workers either. Especially not as controls already exist, see above.
Inherently racist? Em, how so?
