Indeed poor AssGuru, had no idea there was widespread & systematic abuse of the student visa system as documented by these right wing sources.

Curtailment of 100,000 student visas sparks row - BBC News

Read up to the bit you thought the Guardian was right wing and then stopped, there again should have known as you are one of the very few people that see May as being intelligent.

But you have to admit, it is funny (or is it depressing that the UK is making itself a laughing stock on the world stage?)

It is a bit of both. How an advisory referendum could be taken so far is beyond me. A 2nd referendum made legal would have been logical like the French elections so everyone could pause for breath.

On radio four last night they were taking about the delay to queen's speech and how the drying of ink on goats skin parchment was a factor.

You don't follow Scottish politics then?

The only party in the UK at the minute with a majority government is the SNP.

[scooterscot]

John Major makes an excellent point regarding the peace process remains fragile. If a Westminster party attempts to shore up a minority government when they are to be impartial to northern Ireland parties... one could imagine the peace process unravelling. If there's any hint of this a 2nd GE must be held. A position whereby a Westminster party sacrifices trouble in NI reigniting for a power grab in their own party - how much damage will they be allowed to cause?

Remember all this begun because of David Cameron. Never forget.

Well you complete cretin, the incompetence of authorities who can't figure out who a genuine student is, is hardly negating my point.

Exhibit one - Student X from abroad has a place to study Engineering at Imperial College. Give him a visa and extend the red carpet. Hopefully he'll stay on afterwards.

Exhibit two - Student Y from abroad has a place to study marketing at Bollux School of marketing. Decline the visa.

Crack down on bogus colleges, only allow students in accredited insititutions.

And those students in accredited insitituitions are not immigrants until they apply for that status.

missing the sarcasm?

May is a fekwitt as I have mentioned a few times.

You bemoaned people and politicians for limiting student visas when all they did was do exactly what you suggested needed doing.

Prettty sure you said she was intelligent in one post but anyway the point is that limiting the number of students would be like Tesco limiting the number of customers going in its stores because 10% of its goods get nicked. Also as many educational establishments have said you can come here on a tourist visa and overstay the type of visa is not the problem.

At first I thought she was, then it became obvious she is seriously out of her depth.

However if Tesco limit & watch the customers based on intelligence they can limit their shoplifting exposure. Closing bogus colleges and refusing high risk students visas makes a lot of sense.

Like every idiot you assume 2 wrongs make a right or negate each other. The solution to one specific problem is not universal otherwise we would have complete control over immigration. Fix the specific problem not claim it is pointless because there is another one.

If you note the UK have also limited Visas to high risk nations and ICTs who abuse the situation.

I know you're a bit thick and don't understand English properly, so it's no surprise that you've got the wrong end of the stick.

What I said is that counting students as immigrants is misleading and wrong, since the vast majority go back.

"Fake" students is another issue entirely.
