Robert Jenrick has outlined a 30-point plan to cut legal migration, including creating a new department whose 'sole mission is controlling immigration'.
Former Tory immigration minister Robert Jenrick has called for the Home Office to be split in two as part of a 30-point plan to curb migration. Mr Jenrick, who is seen as a potential Conservative leadership contender, has been ramping up pressure on Rishi Sunak over the issue after quitting his government post last year.
He quit over the government's inability to get the Rwanda deportation policy off the ground, and has since become one of the Mr Sunak's loudest critics, particularly on migration. Official estimates published in November indicated the net migration figure - the difference between the number of people arriving and leaving Britain - reached a record 745,000 in 2022. The 2019 Tory manifesto promised to bring the 'overall number down'.
