Given the choice between supporting the #care sector, by helping #migrants continue to fill much needed jobs, or pandering to the anti-migrant right of the #Tory party, new home Secretary #JamesCleverly is doing the latter & looks likely to reduce work-related visas & raise salary thresholds.
We might say that reducing the dependence on foreign workers in #socialcare is no bad thing, but without a #workforce plan that's bringing UK #workers into the sector this is just more #Tory wrecking!
