Irony that same week Govt hails India-UK trade deal promising a £4.8bn boost to GDP by 2040, it trails plans to restrict the Graduate Route that would crater value of one of our largest exports to India and many other countries. International students bring £41bn to UK econ p.a.

At @policyatkings and @HEPI_news event @JoJohnsonUK responds that it's the Conservative party that's gone off-piste on HE, should be celebrating the widening access and opportunity achieved by system instead of attacking Mickey Mouse degrees

I’ve written today on @Wonkhe to emphasise how important it is for an incoming govt to pause defunding BTECs and similar quals - and to do it quickly to avoid a disastrous impact on HE participation

It's very clear from poll after poll and every bit of data we have that peoples' concern about immigration primarily relates to asylum seekers not legal migration.
