Student Migrants

What is particularly worrying about the disclosures that the Government have repeatedly used inaccurate figures regarding the number of students staying behind in the country after the end of their courses raised several very significant issues.
It appears that Theresa May, as Home Secretary was made aware that the statistics were dubious but decided that it was better to use fake figures if they best served her purposes.
Such an arrogant approach to the truth is indicative of an individual and government not disposed to listen to the people but to do whatever it takes to persuade the electorate that they should accept what they are told. If the fake facts reinforce the prejudicial views of the electorate, then it seems all the more reason to feed this stream of falsehood.
