LEADERS of the Leave European Union camp have promised to introduce an Australian-style points system to control immigration in the event of Brexit.

UK Justice Secretary Michael Gove, Employment Minister Priti Patel, former London Mayor Boris Johnson and the opposition Labour Party's Gisela Stuart stressed that they would welcome educated, skilled immigrants from all over the world and the policy would be proposed in the first election after Brexit.
