Prime Minister Theresa May earlier said that the new British system would prioritize high-skilled workers and treat European Union citizens as the same as those from elsewhere after Britain leaves the bloc next March. “There will be a salary threshold for high skilled workers, I can’t tell you what it is today because we haven’t decided and we will be setting it out — it needs a bit more work — we will be setting it out in the white paper shortly in the autumn,” Javid told a fringe event at the Conservative Party conference. He said Britain would be introducing an electronic travel authority, comparing it to similar schemes used in the United States. The pre-authorization system would apply to all travelers, he said.
