I think I would sooner believe a technical innovator like Dyson ie someone with actual REAL WORLD experience over a self-interested sociopath like Theresa May. Its funny how politicans like the Tories and Farage target the growth of middle management and foreign labour as being one of the primary issues with the uk market and the NHS - yet these are the very things that attract the cream of the crop in terms of world brains and talent, and keep technological innovation, and therefore the economy churning. Hopefully 2015 will be the year when the world realises its a much better place without the bloated middle-management and meddling of politicans as an out of touch and unnecessary class of people hell bent on keeping humanity in the stone age, clinging on as an outmoded, outdated throwback to a pre-science world - where they are rewarded for bullshit, manipulation and spin, yet are entrusted with powers and march onwards in directions that completely oppose the general consensus and empirical evidence in pursuit of their own ill-gotten gains, and to each member of the general populations peril! The home secretary announced last month that she wants the Conservatives to make a manifesto commitment to force students from outside the EU to leave the UK and apply for a new visa from abroad once they have completed their degree. Dyson echoes criticism of the proposal from the academic and scientific communities, saying that it will make a shortage of scientists and engineers worse. “Our borders must remain open to the world’s best,” he writes in the Guardian. “Give them our knowledge, allow them to develop their own, and permit them to apply it here on our shores. Their ideas and inventiveness will create technology to export around the world … May’s immigration plans simply force the nimble minds we nurture to return home and fuel competition from overseas. Why would they return? Often they hail from emerging economies and nations that respect science and engineering.” The Campaign for Science and Engineering said the proposal was at odds with the government’s commitment to make Britain the best place in the world to do science.
