The British government has eased immigration restrictions for foreign students enrolled in UK universities. Under new Interior Ministry rules, they will all be allowed to stay in the country for two years even after graduating, if they want, in order to have time to look for a stable job.
The new law lifts restrictions set by Theresa May, which required foreign university students on student visas to leave Britain within four months of graduating.
Meanwhile, an Edinburgh Court of Appeal has declared illegitimate the suspension of the British Parliament until October 14 decided by Prime Minister Boris Johnson. With this ruling, the three judges overturned an earlier ruling that the courts had no powers to interfere with Downing Street's political decisions.
The case, which arose from a complaint presented by 75 opposition deputies, should now be examined by the Supreme Court. For the Edinburgh Court of Appeal, the prime minister's move is illegitimate because he simply aims "to hinder the work of Parliament". The reasons for the ruling will be published in their entirety on Friday.
