The Spectator(@spectator):The final claim is that these workers came 'to support a social care system'. Perhaps that's true. Or perhaps they came for better pay than they could get back home and the opportunity, after five years, to be entitled to a lifetime of benefits at the expense of British taxpayers. In truth, their motives are irrelevant. What does matter is that the care worker visa route was itself a disaster. ✍️ David Shipley Article | https://t.co/aD3AkUohFw
