Farage: PM must not 'backslide' on immigration promise

Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage has insisted that Prime Minister Theresa May should not be allowed to "backslide" on a points-based system for immigration.

May has said that the points systems used in other countries "simply don't work" and added that there was no single way to deal with immigration.

Speaking to ITV News, Farage said it was worrying that May seemed to be going back on the key Brexit promise to introduce the system, which he claims will be one of the best ways to control who comes into the UK.
