Ben Clatworthy, Whitehall editor at The Times, and Fraser Nelson, Times columnist, dive into the UK Home Secretary's recent sweeping asylum reforms, the most significant since WWII.

The duo debates whether these measures signify a permanent shift in European leftist policies toward tougher immigration stances.
