The Agenda

What a Labour government means for legal migration

Lewis Silkin

Immigration was a crucial part of the Labour manifesto, now that they are in power listen to Supinder Sian and Naomi Hanrahan-Soar take stock of what they promised policy-wise on legal migration to the UK as well as other areas they think should top the agenda:

  • A more evidence-led and cross-government approach to managing the numbers
  • Immigration sponsorship with industrial strategy
  • Digitalisation of the immigration system
  • How much it costs to get a work visa in the UK
