What the EU should have proposed to the UK in order to have made a meaningful negotiation approach on the Youth Mobility visa. And what the UK should carefully consider to ensure it can stay an innovative country. Young minds are the biggest motor of innovation after all!

*New briefing* from @STWolpers & @jujulemons 🇬🇧 should expand its Youth Mobility Scheme to compete in the global race for talent. Talent creates growth: 1 in 5 FTSE 100 companies were founded by migrants, and 39% of the UK's fastest growing startups have migrant founders.

Ich habe mit @heindehaas über seine Kritik an der europäischen Migrationspolitik gesprochen, diesen Teufelskreis an falschen Slogans und Fake-Lösungen, wie er sagt - und darüber was es wirklich bräuchte, um irreguläre Migration zu regulieren. @derspiegel spiegel.de/ausland/europa…

The next government should read this from @STWolpers & @jujulemons Expansion of YMS is popular with the British public, the EU wants it, and our economy needs it. What's not to like? 👇👇👇

🚨🔥 🥳We’ve recently finished collecting the 1st wave of what we hope will be a helpful panel data resource, which we’ve uncreatively called the Pacific Labour Mobility Survey. Here is a quick thread, as we have just released a report with all the main descriptive findings. 1/N

One final thought: Fact-checks after the fact are inherently limited. “A lie is halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on”. Forensic, investigative, truth-seeking work should be a proactive part of breaking news coverage, not a reactive add-on afterwards.

Some quick thoughts on why large parts of the mainstream media keep slipping up on Gaza/Israel (and why it was the same at times with Covid): The main reason is a failure to keep pace with modern news gathering techniques, but there’s more.

@LillyBlaudszun Ich war dort zu dem gleichen Zeitpunkt. Es gab keinen „Tot Israel“ chor von der Demo. Was es gab war „Free, free Palestine“ Das alleine ist aber nicht antisemitisch. Bevor hier ganzen Gruppen irgendetwas unterstellt wird uns sie alle unter Generalverdacht kommen…

so lange „tot israel“ auf berliner straßen skandiert wird, gibt es keine garantie für die sicherheit jüdischen lebens. darauf müssen wir antworten finden. rassistische vorurteile sind keine. antisemiten sind arschlöcher, weil sie antisemiten sind. am israel chai 🇮🇱 #neukölln

Pretty straightforward @WSJ editorial today. Birth rates are going down, unemployment is going down, and labor shortages are going up. "Someone needs to make the case that admitting foreign workers is good for Americans." wsj.com/articles/ameri…

It's strange how Suella Braverman says here that 4,000 people have received Windrush compensation when the actual figure is only 1,681 - much lower. The press office says she made a mistake But this was the most important figure for the interview itv.com/news/2023-06-2…

Fifty five (55) men, women & children drowned in the Mediterranean trying to reach Italy. Tomorrow Italian PM Meloni will meet Sunak & they’ll smile for the cameras & say more of the same enforcement & cruelty is the answer to this never ending nightmare nytimes.com/2023/04/26/wor…

When I talk about the need for more funding for legal and safe labor migration, sometimes folks from the US and UK highlight the seemingly impossible political barriers, questioning whether resources invested in mobility will make a difference... 1/n

"A winning #migration strategy can deliver both near-term and long-term payoffs....Such a strategy requires not only effective integration of immigrants, but also an optimal #migrationmix—one that acknowledges the many forms of additive value that global talent offers."
