In this week’s Despatch, Karl Williams of the Centre for Policy Studies unpacks Labour’s long-awaited immigration white paper — and asks whether anything’s really changed. From sky-high net migration targets to fudged visa reforms and a rebrand of the widely abused ‘shortage occupation’ list, Labour’s plans are long on rhetoric but risk being short on action. Worse still, the numbers show that even now, the UK’s immigration model remains historically unprecedented, economically unsustainable, and politically combustible. Will Labour’s technocratic tinkering bring about genuine reform — or is it just more of the same? This is a clear-eyed look at the promises, the policy and the political price of failure.
