I agree with most of what Tony Blair says in the article, especially this paragraph:

“Of course it has to be controlled, and illegal immigration has to be tackled head on. It's important that we do that,” he said. “But overall I would like to say that I think immigration has been good for Britain and most immigrants have assimilated well. So don't make them a scapegoat for our problems.”

In my view, immigration has definitely been good for Britain. Without it, we really would be in trouble!

but Blair didn't control it, he says he has nothing to say sorry for, yet the labour party has admitted it made mistakes, it should have placed the same controls on Polish people as it did on Romanians and Bulgarians.

Agree.

It also depends upon what your definition of 'really would be in trouble' means.
