LONDON
http://www.winnipegjetsteamstore.com/adidas-kyle-connor-jersey , Sept. 6 (Xinhua) -- British Prime Minister Theresa Maytold the House of Commons Wednesday that immigration controls intoBritain are important.
Her comments during the weekly prime minister's question timefollowed reports in London's national papers that May's governmentof proposed post-Brexit controls on Europeans coming toBritain.
The Guardian newspaper broke the story citing a leaked reportfrom the interior ministry, the Home Office, setting out detailedproposals, including measures to drive down number of low-skilledmigrants from European countries.
The 82-page draft document said Britain will end the freemovement of labor immediately after Brexit and introducerestrictions to deter all but highly-skilled EU workers fromentering the country.
The Guardian said the document, marked extremely sensitive anddated August 2017

Downing Street and government officials refused to comment onthe reports, saying full details of Britain's immigration planswill be revealed later this fall.
Political commentators said Downing Street's failure to deny ordisown the report, coupled with May's comments in the House ofCommons, gave a strong pointer to the validity of the immigrationplan.
During question time May was asked if she agreed thatimmigration is essential to the strength of the British economy

May replied: "As I have said on many occasions, overallimmigration has been good for the UK, but people want to see itcontrolled. That is what people want to see as a result of ourleaving the EU.
"We can already exercise controls in relation to those who cometo this country from outside the EU, and the government continuesto believe that it is important to have net migration atsustainable levels, we believe that to be in the tens of thousands

May elaborated on the issue in response to another question fromMP Ian Blackford, who raised the way 100 EU nationals resident inBritain in the summer had received deportation notices inerror.
He told May: "We need to cherish those who are here, not chasethem away," demanding she apologises for the way the migrants hadbeen treated.
May said all 100 of them had been given a governmentapology.
In relation to the error made by the Home Office, every singleone of those individuals was telephoned with an apology.
