Sir Keir Starmer penned this letter on immigration in January 2020The letter also calls for the closure of immigration detention centres, liberalising family reunion, letting asylum seekers work and giving foreigners full voting powers.Writing before he became leader of the Opposition, he said: “If I am elected as Labour leader, I will start work immediately on plans for radical change in the immigration system. No more hostile environment, no more demonising of migrants - but a system based on dignity and compassion.“As part of that, I support ending indefinite detention and closing immigration detention centres like Brook House and Yarl’s Woodhttps://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1906434/keir-starmer-immigration-letter-found
