Downing Street yesterday rejected allegations the PM was not taking net migration seriously, saying the work was of “critical importance”.
Sir Keir’s spokesman said: “It’s absolutely critical that we reduce the sky high levels of migration, which quadrupled under the last government.
“The work ongoing will set out a comprehensive plan to restore order to the system.”
The plans will “link immigration, skills and visas” meaning bosses who hire from abroad will have to ramp up training of homegrown talent.
