Overseas "super-investors" who are willing to keep £5m in a UK bank account are to be given the right to stay indefinitely in Britain after only three years, two years faster than the five-year wait imposed on every other migrant.The explanation is that this will encourage entrepreneurs to settle in the UK, but notice that you don't actually have to do anything with your five or ten million pounds - it just has to be there. So there we have it - a firm commitment from the Home Secretary to the principle that there should be one law for the rich and another law for everyone else.
An overseas investor who is willing to deposit more than £10m in the UK will win the right to stay even quicker, after only two years.
This woman makes me want to do un-Quakerly things.
