  • Summary

  • “Read my lips — I will bring immigration numbers down” said Keir Starmer during the recent General Election campaign.

    The Labour Party election manifesto also said that “Labour will act to create a secure future for higher education”.

    In isolation, both these goals are legitimate aspirations, but when you put them together it raises an interesting policy question: how will the new government approach the issue of international students coming to the UK, as these students increase immigration numbers and also increase the income of UK universities?

    Just before the election, the Social Market Foundation, or SMF – a centrist think tank – published two reports that set out their plans to address these competing priorities.

    And here to discuss the analysis and recommendations in these reports, we are joined today by Jonathan Thomas, a senior fellow at the SMF.
