The Home Secretary's brother has hit out at the “denigration of foreign workers” after his sister announced a policy to force businesses to reveal how many foreign staff they employ.

Amber Rudd used her speech at the Conservative Party conference to warn that foreign workers should not be able to "take the jobs that British people should do".

She revealed that companies could be forced to publish the proportion of "international" staff on their books in a move which would effectively "name and shame" businesses which are failing to take on British workers.
