Fast-track visa to boost FinTech sector

Fast-track visa to boost FinTech sector as Rishi Sunak pledges to help ‘scale-ups’ bring in highly skilled migrants from abroad

This is exactly the sort of thing that would result from Brexit and one of the reasons I chose to remain. It's scandalous considering the amount of home grown talent sitting idle at this time but, unfortunately, my expectations have changed so much over the years with regard to this sort of thing that it's all becoming a bit meh....
