Yes, we need a more proactive approach to immigration to counter the issue low birth rate and increasing life spans
@9PT92RX9mos9MO
No, but make the process more efficient, overhaul the asylum system so that it actually works, and provide more support to help immigrants assimilate and integrate
@9NSMK5J10mos10MO
No, the government simply needs to help the Home Office deliver fast and fair decisions. Better funding and oversight is needed.
@9M44LXY11mos11MO
People should be allowed to travel freely but as long as they pay equal taxes and do not have a bad criminal record.
@9NCPMNL10mos10MO
Block immigrants from doing certain jobs similar to the Japanese system. But allow them to do all others. But put a requirement the MUST work even if the can afford not to. The UK is not a tourist playground.
@9LNNTS211mos11MO
yes for illegal immigrants and those with criminal backgrounds and not showing any intentions to be good orderly citizens
@9NXJK6Y10mos10MO
The government should fund the training of UK citizens first before ramping down the issuing of Visas. Furthermore Student visas should not lead to citizenship
@9MZQWFH10mos10MO
the current immigration policy is fine, but they should be given a free college course upon entering to give them the opportunity for better jobs
@8YL9BMN3yrs3Y
No, AND make the process easier for skilled workers
