Britain dodges a bullet...

...this time...
Eleven of the 12 arrested in raids across the North West on Wednesday - including at Liverpool’s John Moores University - were Pakistani nationals, and 10 of them were in Britain on student visas.

"Bogus" colleges have enabled migrants from around the world to come to Britain by claiming that they are students on further education courses, or learning English.
You think the wonderful "nanny state" is gonna keep you safe and warm?

Think again.
The absence of automatic interviews for every applicant for a visa has allowed bogus students, in turn, to escape proper scrutiny by British officials who issue the travel document overseas.

There are up to 2,000 such "bogus" institutions in the UK, according to the Home Office.
