Having scrapped the Rwanda Plan on day one and with the Border Security Command on its way, what’s next for the Labour government’s approach to  migration, refugee and asylum policy? Using research from UCL and More in Common, the panel will discuss how the new government can better balance the public’s expectations for control, compassion and contribution.
