Immigration Rhetoric: how is discourse about migrants shaping elections?

The Political Cycle

With news emerging this week that a 2019 citizenship law in India, intended to exclude Muslims from the naturalisation process, is shortly to come into action, the Tricycle gang gather to discuss how rhetoric about immigration is shaping these elections. With Trump confirmed as the Republican nominee, will we see a repeat of the anti-immigration rhetoric that typified the election in 2016? Meanwhile, in the UK, a major Tory donor has opened up difficult questions about racism within the British conservative base. Join Emily Tamkin, Rohan Venkat and Tom Hamilton to discuss.
