About 12,000 unskilled migrants from non-EU countries in Africa, America and Asia came to work in the UK last year.

With countries such as the UK which are top destinations for immigrants, the points-based system is the only way to go. It works here in Canada. Also, our country is very generous in terms of foreign aid, as I have no doubt that the UK also is. (ouch, that sentence has a touch of Yoda in it).
Of course, fear of the Great Canadian Winter may keep a lot of people from coming to our country
Brass monkey weather for four or five months of the year
