I think she lacks nuance and leaves little room for debate, but still worth listening.
Also we may not like it, but the UK is a democracy and the xenophobic sentiment of the population has to be taken into account in designing immigration laws. It seems politicians have failed at convincing voters that low-skilled immigration is actually good for them.
