  'Closed'? Surely you mean closable? See Andrew Neather :- http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Andrew_Neather
  
  Immigration was actively encouraged for example from the West Indies by London Transport from 1956 as apparently we had a labour shortage (now where have I heard that recently?).
  
  The facts of the matter were that the Labour shortage was caused by labour unions refusing to allow women to drive busses! (The first woman bus driver for London Transport only being in 1974).
  
  Up the workers.
