Perhaps Blair took his lead for gerrymandering from the ex leader of the Conservative Westminster council, Shirley Porter, who was made a CBE by John Major. She was given a huge fine that was eventually settled years later.
I think the arranged brides is one of many problems caused by the Pakistanis who don't appear to integrate very well into UK society compared with East African Asians. The 100000 figure you quote is a drop in the ocean compared with the > 3 million net immigration under Labours last 13 years of misrule.

I don't really se how you can link housing gerrymandering with a cynical policy that swelled the non ethnic British population by millions including some absolute scum of the earth who have now joined the ranks of the enemy within.
