Shabana Mahmood is up shortly at the left-wing IPPR think tank to announce her reforms to the migration system aimed at legal and illegal migration. Watch live here shortly…

Backbench Labour MP Tony Vaughan fired off a letter signed by 100 MPs and says: “We can change our immigration system for the better without forgetting who we are as a Labour Party. You don’t win back public confidence in the asylum system by threatening to forcibly remove refugees who have lived here lawfully for 15 or 20 years.

- A Unison letter is going around.
- No10 staff are asking Mahmood to consider watering down some proposals after pressure from the PLP.
- Lucy Powell is going around insisting that reforms must stay “true to our values” after blaming the by-election loss on Mahmood. Or was it the fact that she was up there every day?
