SNP on migration: What has become of this place?

Stephen Flynn said his party thought migration was a “good thing" that enriched the economy, schools and heath and care services.

The SNP Westminster leader asked the PM asked why it was acceptable for people to come to the UK to “care for our family members” but a “complete disregard” was shown to them.

Rishi Sunak said the UK had a “proud track record” of welcoming the most vulnerable. But he added immigration levels were “far too high” and those who came here must contribute to public services.
