About this episode
Sir Keir Starmer is under fire for saying the UK could become an "island of strangers" unless new curbs on migration bring the numbers down - but are comparisons with Enoch Powell and 'Rivers of Blood' misplaced?
Hugo Rifkind unpacks the politics of the day with Libby Purves and James Marriott.
