Clegg wants bail system for migrants

Deputy prime minister Nick Clegg has called for a bail-like system of security bonds to tackle abuse of immigration visas.

Making his first speech on immigration Mr Clegg said applicants from "high risk" countries would pay cash guarantees to be repaid when they leave.

"The bonds would need to be well targeted - so that they don't unfairly discriminate against particular groups," Mr Clegg said.
