A Guardian opinion piece argues that Labour's plans for migrant workers, particularly in social care, look irrational once the policy details are examined. The article focuses on care worker visas and migration policy associated with Shabana Mahmood, linking the restrictions to pressures on older people and disability care. Critics say the small print reveals measures that could deepen staff shortages in the care sector.
