Responding to the Conservative Party manifesto launch, Richard Tice, Co-Chair of Leave Means Leave said:

“Committing to reducing net migration to the tens of thousands is the right thing to do and is simply the average migration levels achieved in the 1990s, when our public services and businesses worked well and low skilled wages were not suppressed as they are now. 

“Doubling the Immigration Skills Charge levied on companies employing migrant workers and investing the revenue in higher level skills training for workers in Britain is a very welcome policy as we have over 800,000 young British NEETs.”
