Apparently she said that tonight in a TV interview. Anyone know what she means ? I thought the Brexit vote was to a large degree about stopping the huge amount of immigrants coming into the country. Can someone explain please or is this just more fake news ?

She can't say anything with certainty until the negotiations are completed. Let them get on with it. We've got two years of pointless questions from the media to contend with. God help us!

With the exception of Poland most immigrants are from outside Europe.
Leaving Europe will not reduce this. |

Brexit was never about reducing immigration. HTH. Apologies to any leavers who were deluded by headlines and not the official leave campaign.

Only letting in people who pay much more tax than they claim back in benefits seems a good idea to me. And please, no need to apologise on behalf of others, you must feel bad enough already.

It's pretty clear they dont know what the hell they are doing, it's just a confindence trick as per all politics in general.
They said intelligence wouldn't be sacrificed but now suggest it's a bargaining tool. |

ECHR has nothing to do with the EU. There's a theme here. Lots of people voted for Brexit for reasons that have nothing to do with the EU. They will be disappointed.
Of course, if the Remainers had run a proper campaign instead of stirring up fears of World War III, they might have won. |

brexit was about one thing, reducing immigration.
everything else is merely business. |

By:
The EU are determined to maintain one thing, and one thing only. Free movement of people to Britain.
They must not be allowed to do so. |

i thought brexit was about getting home rule.

Let us know when the government does anything about non-EU immigration.
Until then, what makes you think it has any desire to limit EU immigration? |

i really dont get the snow flakes cant work out whether there just thick or ignorant,
bloke on same ch 4 news and lots of the remoaners says its racist to talk about getting immigration numbers down ,which may or may not happen under brexit,yet unlike the torys it wasnt a manifesto pledge like them saying there going to cut immigration from over 300,000 to less than a 100,000 and got voted into government twice on the back of it,labour who didnt want a cap got obliterated at the same 2 elections,and i,m sure theres millions of snow flakes who voted torys and lib dem |

Ramrura brexit had nothing to do with the government.
once you understand that you will be on the right lines it was a referendum of the people, if there is any doubt as to their wishes hold another referendum on whether they wish to stop the free movement of people into Britain and just to make sure there is no dust thrown up again ask them do they want to take control of their borders and stop free movement of labour irrespective of anything else under the sun. |

Cameron telling people holidays will cost £230 more did it for a lot of people as well as the WW3 quote. You can't insult people's intelligence like that without their wanting to get their own back.

lfc1971 -- immigration is under the control of the government. You seem to be saying that many of the people who voted for Brexit did so because they wanted immigration reduced.
If so, you are right but they were wrong because Brexit will not lead to less immigration and the Leave campaign never said it would. The government has no interest in reducing immigration. |
|
By:
immigration is not under the control of the government when there is free movement of labour .
that is what , imo, British people want to stop and why they voted Brexit. Will the British government continue to allow immigration? yes but controlled immigration. There cannot be controlled immigration if there are no borders. If the British gov insists on maintaining unrestricted levels of immigration then it is up to British people to elect a government that is more aligned to the wishes of the people. The first step is to leave the EU, and then take things from there. |
