00:00Well, the vast majority of people who work in our care homes are British.
00:05There have been a number of people who've come in in recent years from overseas,
00:09and that's been a mistake.
00:11Those people have put pressure on public services here in the UK.
00:16They've often brought dependents with them,
00:18and that costs the British taxpayer money in years to come.
00:22What I want to see is the care sector paying British workers more,
00:27treating their workforce better, giving career progression to those individuals,
00:32and us getting some of the millions of people in our country
00:35who are currently out of work, off benefits, and into fulfilling careers in the care sector,
00:41rather than simply relying on the lever of low-wage, low-skilled migration from overseas,
00:47which is not sustainable.
00:48I would like the government to go much further with respect to universities.
00:52We need to ensure that our universities are educating people,
00:56not in the immigration business, as some have fallen into in recent years,
01:01where they've become reliant upon foreign students,
01:04some of whom are not interested in the courses that they're doing here.
01:07They're simply interested in it as a backdoor to life in the United Kingdom.
01:11And many of those people go on to work in low-paid, low-wage jobs,
01:16as delivery drivers or in the care sector,
01:19not in graduate-level jobs.
01:21If you come here to a university and want to stay, at a minimum,
01:26you should be doing it at a graduate level.
01:28The number of people coming across on small boats is soaring.
01:31This is the worst year ever.
01:34The action on legal migration is insufficient to bring the numbers down
01:37to the level that the British public expect.
01:39He's doing nothing to get the million people in this country
01:42who are here illegally deported back home to their own countries.
01:46Those are the steps that are necessary.
01:47He's simply yet another politician lying to the British public
01:51because he thinks it's the right thing to do politically,
01:53but not taking the action that's necessary to actually deliver.
