Rayner criticises visa rules proposals ahead of Labour conference
She described the potential rule change as "very disruptive" and added: "I do have concerns about that." During her interview with Times, she said that the changes would impact foreign care workers who "moved their lives here to look after our loved ones". In June, she said proposals to retrospectively alter the rules for migrants already working in the UK would be "wrong". She could have given a full-throated defence of the principle of backdating the changes so they apply to those foreign workers already here.
