You pointed out some issue that need to be carefully looked into regarding the Lib Dem proposal but would you not agree that the Tory plan of an immigration cap is an unnecessarily restrictive policy that could potentially harm business and damage universities both financially and academically? I'm not arguing that immigration should be uncontrolled but a definitive cap seems to be a headline grabber rather than a well thought out policy to me. The points system could be amended as required to control the flow of immigration on a flexible level, both in terms of absolute numbers and required skills.
