I've contributed so much to the UK/@EdinburghUni/@UniOfYork community through volunteering work over 8 years of my life while sacrificing time away from my own family, to be STILL treated like we're here to 'steal jobs'. Absolutely disgusted and disappointed. What a sad day.

Weโ€™re increasing the minimum earnings threshold for skilled workers by 48% to ยฃ38,700, encouraging businesses to look to British talent first and invest in their workforce.

Isn't the discount the point of recruiting people for shortage occupations............?
Replying to @10DowningStreet
Weโ€™re scrapping the 20% going rate salary discount, meaning the immigration system cannot undercut British workers.

Just another emerging #lateralroot of #cucumber Grey channel - stained cell walls. Red nuclei - auxin maximum (DR5). A few orange nuclei (near the initial cells of LR) - green nuclei expressing promoter-reporter fusion (merged with DR5). #confocal #LSM780 #auxin #root

The utter meanness and shame of a nation saying we want a careworker to come and look after our elderly incontinent parents, but we won't let them bring their kids to live with them.
