Immigration Nation? (w/ Jonathan Portes)
Manage episode 392659412 series 3419887
Earlier in the year I started a series on Migration which I put on hold to focus on the Gaza War. This was going to be episode 2 of that series. It's with Jonathan Portes, who was a very senior civil servant in the New Labour years and is now a Professor of Political Economy at Kings College London. We discussed the history and economics of immigration to Britain, including the major waves of migration since WW2 and how, paradoxically, immigration has increased after Brexit. Jonathan is one of Britain's leading thinkers on immigration policy, and this was an illuminating discussion in a year when the Tories are desperate to get migration back up on the political agenda.
