Today, one of the most stringent immigration enforcement bills in the nation takes effect in Oklahoma. It makes it illegal to hire, house, transport or conceal illegal immigrants. "People are panicking," Stump said. "We're being flooded with calls from panicked Oklahoma employers, scared landlords and worried health care professionals." Stump said he believes much of the fear is unfounded, but huge numbers of Hispanics are responding by making arrangements to leave the state. "It's going to be in the tens of thousands," he said, adding they are fleeing to Arkansas, Texas and other states they view as more friendly. "It's going to have a terrible impact on the housing market and shopping in communities," he said. "It will have a domino impact." Winningham agreed a lot of people are scared, but thought Stump's estimate of the number who would leave the state was high.

The fact is that this consultation failed and, instead of pressing full steam ahead to a planning decision, the council should allow it to be re-run. "It is simply not credible to argue that people knew what was going on but chose to ignore it. "I hope that the council and Go Ape will now agree to take a step back and allow for a proper consultation with the real owners of Pollok Park - the people of Glasgow." But, despite her appeal, the council responded yesterday by insisting it is "not in a position" to halt the planning application and has no plans to re-run its consultation. A council spokesman said: "A third party has made a planning application and, as a result, the statutory planning process is now under way. Glasgow City Council's role in the process is as the local planning authority and it is not in a position to stop, alter or frustrate the application.
