Tougher rules for migrants settling in the UK

PM

Available for 29 days

The Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has set out tighter criteria for settlement, but waters down her original proposals for social care workers. We'll look at why and speak to the Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee, Dame Karen Bradley. Also on PM, some UK businesses appear to be impacted as supermarkets across Europe are hit by another cyber-attack on their refrigerators and freezers. We look ahead to tomorrow's US midterm elections and, as Liz Truss defends her economic record in Number 10, we ask - does she have a point?
