In an announcement reflective of the protective mood among some UK politicians, Home Secretary Amber Rudd announced a crackdown on international students and immigrant workers. Rudd's remarks focused on preventing foreign workers from taking jobs that should be held by Brits and discouraging international students from enrolling in low quality programs. Paul Blomfield, co-chair of an all-party parliamentary group on international students, labeled Rudd's remarks about universities as "spectacularly uninformed." Brexit secretary, David Davis, said that British companies may be required to seek British nationals to fill positions before they turn to internationals. Davis added, "But the other side of this is we have to make sure that our own population are ready and equipped to work, whether it is low-skilled work - and that is about motivation and about commitment to work."
