Acting legend and star of mega hit TV show Sucession Brian Cox has spoken out about his feelings about student migration.
Before we start here is every Logan Roy ‘f*ck off’ from the Tv show (2018-2023)
He was part of the panel on the Sunday with Laura Kuensberg show on BBC One, with Tory immigration minister Robert Jenrick.
Cox is not known to hold his back with his opinions and this was no different.
Brian Cox Migration
He defended student migration to Scotland in a BBC interview amid record high migration figures.
It comes after the Home Office announced that post-graduates on non-research courses would no longer be able to bring family members to the UK, prompting outrage and a huge backlash.
“We depend on students and international students, he said, of Scotland especially.
“I was the rector of Dundee University for several years, so I know how important that was and how important it was to include these extraordinarily talented people to come and study here.”
Pimlico
Around 40 refugees were “left on the street” in Westminster for two nights, after the group apparently refused to enter a Pimlico hotel where the Home Office had asked them to sleep “four people per room”.
Following the interview with Jenrick, Cox was asked for his view on the immigration row and the incident in Pimlico.
“I think it’s very hard to have the broader perspective, quite frankly, because of the nature of the individual cases, the individual group,” Cox said.
“I mean I think we’ve seen a lot of that. I mean, I think Brexit has a lot to do with that. I think Covid has certainly got a lot to do with what’s happened.”
