Theresa May vows to restore public confidence in immigration system wrote:The Home Secretary said: 'The government intends to control immigration by focusing on all aspects of the immigration system, not just the points based system. So over the coming months action will be taken on students, families and settlement as well as people coming here to work.'
Among her priorities are:
- encouraging more entrepreneurs and investors to come to Britain
- putting a stop to abuse of the student route
- cutting the link between those who come here temporarily and permanent settlement
........
She added: 'Work in Britain for a short period should not give someone the right to settle in Britain. Studying a course in Britain should not give someone the right to settle in Britain.'
..........
She said: 'It will take hard work and a great deal of political courage. But the British people want us to do it and it is the right thing to do. So we will do it.'
