The immigration industry says contradictory messages from the Government over work visa holders are making a grim situation intolerable. The policy chair at the Association for Migration and Investment, Arunima Dhingra, says the Government's stance on immigrants locked out by the border closure is at odds with what the Prime Minister is saying. She told our immigration reporter Gill Bonnett that Jacinda Ardern is playing good cop while the immigration minister and officials is delivering less palatable news.
