Home Secretary Theresa May has agreed to substantial budget cuts of 7.7% at the Home Office but secured protection for counter-terror policing. Other areas, such as immigration, will be squeezed however.

Well, it's not like we are relying on some kind of governmental charity.

Just one average Tier 1 PEO appointment (for a family of 3) brings about 5,000 GBP revenue for a couple of hours of work. How many other private businesses have that kind of return?

If I was the Government, I would actually try and increase the number of UKBA staff.
