The details have been announced today (BBC Radio 4 News) of the Government's cap to immigration from non-EU countries. Work visas will be restricted to a little more than 24,000 between now and next April. This will reduce the number of work visas issued by 5%.
Either the visas are necessary or they're not.
If they're necessary there shouldn't be any cap.
If they're not, they shouldn't be issued.
What happens if the Americans take over BP after the cap is imposed? They don't get visas?
If the issue of immigration to the UK is to be taken seriously, the obvious loophole to close is the one by which foreign men can live here through marriage even though they don't have a job.
Foreign husbands could still live here if they have a necessary job.
