Abstract
Despite the current initiatives to attract more young people to study engineering, it is clear these domestic newcomers will not be ready when the market needs them. The readiest short and medium-term solution to the skills gap problem is immigration. Few topics have been as hotly debated in the run up to the UK General Election as immigration. Is the country threatened by an influx of lazy scroungers, or are foreign workers the solution to skills shortages?
