> People who want unrestricted immigration for "looking for work"

sounds like a weird strawman. Do you know of any larger group seriously fighting for that at the moment?

(People coming for a scheduled interview are not "unrestricted immigration for looking for work")

The article mentions a person coming "looking for work" being detained.

The article also mentions a French woman who was detained for attending an interview for an internship, so I think there's that too.

Imo, it's obviously very unclear as to why they're being detained, but in the case of Eugenia (Spanish woman arriving to "look for work"), it was clearly illegal per the new law.
