Too true.
I found the lack of solidarity from Labour (not the NI socialists / Greens) unpleasant. Talking about how sad it what is happening to EU immigrants is while wanting restrictions, cough... Realpolitik at its finest.
Still many other aspects of Labour immigration policy are a huge improvement so I'd still have been happy with a win for them.
Fom always came with a basic set of rights and no income rules, simply we had too many rights for the neolib bosses / racist groups who made great bedfellows here
Even with a visa you are now tied to your employer and some people get exploited because you have no employer that sponsors the other one? Can't change job, too bad.
So now what, I really don't know. Usual civic society volunteering / donating I guess.

With tough legal immigration, low unemployment this is probably where we’re heading under Boris.
Access to a vulnerable, voiceless, migrant underclass without rights or basic state benefits has got to be a capitalist’s dream.
It also solves my the political ‘immigration problem’ for them. They don’t appear on any official immigration figures.
