Minister's immigration plans go down very well with the party - the Reform party, that is

Truly we are spoilt. Not one, but two Commons announcements on immigration from the home secretary.

Both of them statements of intent. Foreigners, your time is up. Britain isn't just full. It's supersaturated with all the wrong kind of people. Theresa May must be shaking her head. She got labelled with creating a hostile environment just for sending vans round to areas with a large proportion of immigrants, saying, "Piss off home. You're not wanted." I guess those were gentler, kinder times.

Fair to say, Shabana Mahmood's first statement on illegal immigration went down an absolute storm. With Reform. At Wednesday's prime minister's questions, Lee Anderson had been open-mouthed with admiration. "The government is guilty of dog whistle politics," he said. From Reform, there is no higher praise.

Now Mahmood was due back in the Commons to tackle legal migration. Time to empty the care homes of low-paid workers. Let the old die. They needed to learn to stand on their own two feet. Not lounge around in bed. First though, she had an appointment with the BBC's Nick Robinson to appear on the Political Thinking podcast. She had some important thoughts to share.
