Clarification needed

This threat has been used as a motivation for some (initial, temporary) restrictions in the free movement of labour within the union. As such, the threat towards the welfare systems is more politically correct than the threat against trade union members of competition from cheap east European labour.

Why is the threat more "politically correct" than other threats and what does that term mean in this context? A non-British/Commonwealth reader may find this usage confusing.

It also seems to offer point-of-view, unless some kind of evidence is out there that Blair dislikes social welfare programs more than he does labor/trade unions. This is my own interpretation of what the above quote means, but again, some clarification is needed.
