Who’s up for an in-depth look at the last 20 years of UK immigration policy? Come on, it’ll be fun!
I’m joking, of course. It’s no fun at all! It’s full of politicians, for a start, and they’re talking. It’s fascinating how unbearable almost every single one is, no matter where you sit on the political spectrum. The first instalment of the two-part documentary, Immigration: How British Politics Failed, fields Tony Blair, Nigel Farage, Suella Braverman, David Cameron and Michael Howard … It’s like there’s no safe place to rest your eyes, ears or brain, as they bloviate or simply recreate – alongside archive news footage and tabloid headlines – the lowlights of the past few decades, over the question of how many people, for what reason and with what motivation we should take in from other countries.
