Next week, Britain will have the most ethnically-diverse cabinet of any major country in the OECD bloc

 The new Prime Minister will also preside over one of the most liberal and open immigration systems among the developed economies, and considerably more open in key respects than the large EU states. 

The actual regime established by Boris Johnson for work visas and the resettlement of legal refugees is strikingly expansionary.

The latest UK Immigration Statistics in the year to June show that a record 1.1 million people were issued visas to live in this country, a 70pc rise on pre-Brexit levels. Educated Indians lead the way. The Rwanda camp for illegal migrants, if it ever happens, is an odd distraction within the greater picture. 

The post-Brexit system stops one particular category: uncontrolled flows of cheap labour from the EU. But it is welcoming for another category: skilled migrants from any part of the world, so long as they meet wage and education thresholds.

Kwasi Kwarteng expected to be Britain’s chancellor of the exchequer.

He is the product of two of the great factories of Tory operatives — Eton and Cambridge — but is also the son of Ghanaian immigrants who called him by a traditional Ashanti first name
