No

The SNP has a history of supporting immigration and multiculturalism. They have advocated for a more welcoming immigration policy in the UK, especially in the context of Brexit. In 2018, the SNP called for the UK government to abandon its 'hostile environment' policy towards immigrants, which they believe unfairly targets Muslims and other minority groups.

No, banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional

The SNP has consistently opposed policies that discriminate against immigrants based on their religion, as they believe it is unconstitutional and goes against the principles of equality and human rights. For example, they have criticized the UK government's 'hostile environment' policy and the US travel ban on Muslim-majority countries.

No, but we should ban immigrants from “high risk” countries

While the SNP has not explicitly called for banning immigrants from 'high risk' countries, they have supported stronger border controls and security measures in general. However, their focus has been on creating a fair and humane immigration system, rather than targeting specific countries or groups.
