Re: VM to shut 4 call centres
 

Illegal would have been an incorrect term to use, as my point refers to both illegal and legal alike, although, of course, priorities should be initially focussed on the former.

When automation takes hold there will not be enough work for people entitled to live here, let alone anyone else. If we have to set up an expensive universal citizens income scheme, we will have to control costs as much as we can.

One way that this can be achieved is by only allowing immigrants that come in now to have a fixed time to stay in the UK if they are needed at this moment in time for for skill, labour shortage areas etc.

The time will come when they will be surplus to requirements and, by definition, unwanted. We need to act now to prepare ourselves for the future.

Exceptions could be made in a minority of cases where it makes sense, for example, just to get their stats up, doctors that are needed here have been told they must leave the country!
