The latest survey might seem like the ideal opportunity for the Government to heed the results and relax its gatekeeping. Perhaps Rishi Sunak might abandon that pledge to bring down overall immigration numbers. More likely, the referendum, with its pledge to “take back control” de-fanged a heated mood about immigration, precisely because it signalled to voters – who equated EU membership with loss of control over who came into the country – that they could influence who came and who did not. That has duly produced the next paradox – which is that the Government both does and does not want a high level of immigration.
