Does migration hurt our economy?

from The Capitalist Hosted by CapX

Britain’s migration debate has reached boiling point. With migrant hotels sparking legal battles, border policies under fire, and trust in government eroding, the question is no longer just about numbers – it’s about whether Britain can regain control of its borders and its future. In this edition of The Capitalist, Marc Sidwell is joined by City AM’s Alys Denby and economist Julian Jessop to unpack the UK’s immigration crisis, its decade of economic stagnation, and the explosive rise of Reform UK. From the economics of mass migration to the politics of the ECHR, the panel offers clear-eyed analysis on a nation at a crossroads.
