UK needs to look after their own first & foremost we should cancel 99.9% of all IT visas tomorrow get our own people in full time work again then see what slim pickings we want to let others have the great honour of be given a visa for! In the meantime all these consultancies & offshoring specialists are just raking in the money & more & more UK IT workers are sitting around on the bench!!Comment

£30k would limit grads to financial services and the big software houses too. Seems like a stupid idea that will drain the country of much need skilled resources.
I'd much rather we have 1000 Indian techies over a yet another lazy European lodging in a room and working in a coffee shop.Comment

Those so called lazy Europeans actually get up very early to serve me coffee when I'm taking the train around the country on business. They are also the same people who get my breakfast quickly when I'm going off on holiday on some early flight unlike their British equivalents.

I suppose it raises the bar a bit. Itjobswatch has developers having an average advertised rate of £45,000 (granted not an exact figure) so there is plenty of scope for companies to go for the cheap option still though.Comment

The second part of your comment is out of order.
I'm generally critical of mass immigration but I have to concede that the influx of European labour to the hospitality industry has been a positive thing on the whole.Comment
