The process needs to be easier for refugees but outside of that need to be ensuring skilled workers are being provided with opportunities to come
@9Q3CF479mos9MO
It's impossible to answer this question without all of the facts, such as what the overall percentage is of people in the UK (not just the % of those that live in London) and what is the number of migrants who have left the UK and what is the difference? I don't thing we should make our policies stricter for refugees but stricter and less appealing for those who aren't in immediate danger, who aren't highly skilled and who come here just because it seems like a better life and prospects than where they live now.

Yes, make process easier for skilled workers + regularly review immigrants to ensure they have not engaged in serious crimes.
@93VLYCY3yrs3Y
I believe that its best not be naive and evaluating what an immigrants morals, values and beliefs are on important subjects in the UK and if they don't align then they should be put on a programme to help them understand and see if they've made any progress by the end of it, if not they will have to try again and not be allowed to stay in the UK.
Yes, but make the process easier for refugees, skilled workers and those without a criminal record

They have to get a job within 3 months otherwise their visa is revoked. They cannot claim benefits until having been in full time UK employment for 5 years.
