Closed STOP Tier 2 work Visa's being approved.

Closed on

The govt are approving Tier 2 visa's for those IT Skilled, Finance, Doctors etc. There is already a job shortage here, in those sectors and others. We have enough people born here with those skills.

People are getting Indefinate Leave to Remain (permanent stay) and then bringing their families over, this puts additional pressure on school places, the NHS, other public services and jobs. This is unfair, people born here should be given priority. The govt have made it too easy for companies to be able to get work visa's for their employees.
