A little bit earlier we heard from former immigration minister Robert Jenrick, who quit in December last year over the government's Rwanda bill. He said at the time he didn't believe it was strong enough.
Now, his focus is on legal immigration. He says the numbers of people coming to the country are "so great" that they are putting "immense pressure" on houses, services and community cohesion, and immigration isn't making the country any richer.
"The only way to end this is to set a cap," he says but doesn't give a number. Writing in the Sunday Telegraph, he says migration should be capped at the "tens of thousands" to restore trust.
Home Office minister Chris Philp was also asked about the government's plans for migration earlier in the programme.
Philp has said the government are "taking measures" to "reduce legal migration by about 300,000 a year".
