Former Cabinet minister Rory Stewart has suggested Liz Truss and her Home Secretary could be on a collision course on immigration policy.
Speaking on LBC's Tonight with Andrew Marr, he said: "She [Truss] is going to run into a problem about immigration, because she clearly thinks that immigration can bring growth, and of course, technically that's true.Suella Braverman has revived a previous Tory pledge to bring down net migration to the tens of thousands, and said she would aspire to cut down the overall figure from the current 239,000 level.
Liz Truss is drawing up plans to make it easier for businesses to bring talented staff from abroad under short-term placements in response to short-term labour shortages, the Financial Times reported. Mr Stewart has been deeply critical of the Tory leader's approach on the economy and has previously described working with her as "traumatising".
