  • the hostile environment

    There are at least 2 classes of immigrants, one who would call themselves 'economic' migrant and vulnerable migrant like an asylum seeker.

    In the early tory days (Cameron with May) the hostile environment extended to economic migrants which from what I see is something labour wants to move away from for obvious reasons but keep it hostile for the 'other' kind of migrant.

    Both terrible, there should not be an openly hostile immigration policy from a country with shrinking economy and population AT ALL but I see their scaling back of hostility for the 'right kind' (🤢) of migrant as improvement.

    What I can say just in terms of just competency that a Corbyn gov would have handled it much worse, they have/had no concept of 'balance'. Look at recent NIMBY-ism from rebecca long-bailey for example.

  • there should not be an openly hostile immigration policy from a country with shrinking economy and population AT ALL

    The UK has neither a shrinking economy nor population

    (Nitpicking though, I agree with your general point)
