The Uk Elections have been focusing also on migration, which has been a major topic also in the conversation that lead to the decision pro Brexit. Here below you can find a summary of the position of each party in this matter.

Tories

• Reduce annual net migration to a “sustainable” level in the tens of thousands, rather than the hundreds of thousands
• “For the first time in decades”, control immigration from the European Unionwith new immigration policy
• Toughen up requirements for student visas, include students in immigration quotas and expect them to leave the country when studies are finished
• Independent consultation to better align the visa system with Britain’s modern industrial strategy
• Double the Immigration Skills Charge on companies employing migrant workers

During the campaign, Theresa May promised to deliver “proper control of our immigration” and to introduce restrictions on people coming to Britain from the European Union. She said: “What we need to do is have proper control of our immigration and, of course, we are going to be able to put in rules for people coming from the EU to the UK once we leave the European Union.

The Labout party

• No commitment to reduce numbers
• Labour “believes in fair rules and reasonable management of migration” and will not resort to “bogus” immigration targets
• Scrap income thresholds for spouses of migrants who want to come to the UK
• Creation of a Migrant Impact Fund to support public services in host communities. It will be funded by visa levies and a contributory element from residence visas for high net worth individuals

During an event, Corbyn said that the party would introduce a border control system “based on needs of the economy” and family reunion.

Liberal Democrats
