A plan by Theresa May to force overseas students to return home after they have graduated has been blocked by the Tory leadership in a move reported to have been led by George Osborne.
英国内政大臣Theresa May提出的驱逐毕业留学生回国的计划被英国财政大臣George Osborne为首的托利党(保守党派)阻止下来了。
A day after sharing a pre-election platform with the chancellor, the home secretary lost a battle to revive a proposal from the Tories’ 2010 general election manifesto to require overseas students to apply for a new UK visa from their home country after graduating.
在总理预选后的一天，内政大臣为了振兴保守党在2010年的竞选宣言，提出的要求海外留学生毕业后重新申请英国签证的提议失败了。
The setback for May, reported by the Financial Times, followed a campaign led by the former universities minister David Willetts and the inventor Sir James Dyson to reject the plan to force overseas students to leave the EU after graduating.
《金融时报》报道，May的受挫，随后一场由前大学部长David Willetts和Sir James Dyson领导的一场斗争拒绝海外留学生毕业以后离开欧盟。
Senior Tory officials said the party would not repeat its pledge from its 2010 general election manifesto, as May had demanded, to “require that students must usually leave the country and reapply if they want to switch to another course or apply for a work permit”.
托利党高层官员表示党派不会像May要求的一样实施2010年选举宣言，不会驱逐留学生毕业后回国，或者在英国工作要重新申请签证。
One senior Tory official told the FT: “We have a policy that international students can stay when they graduate if they find a graduate-level job paying £24,000 a year. That remains the policy.”
一位保守党高级官员告诉《金融时报》：“我们一个政策就是毕业生如果能找到一年24,000英镑的工作，他们就可以继续呆在英国。”
The intervention by Osborne will be seen as a setback for May, who is seen as the frontrunner to succeed David Cameron as Tory leader. Osborne is said to be highly wary of the home secretary – she was the only potential leadership candidate not invited by the chancellor’s close ally Michael Gove to meet Jeb Bush during his recent visit to London.
Osborne的干涉对May来说是一种失败，因为May被认为是继David Cameron之后的有望成为托利党领导人的候选。据说Osborne对内政大臣格外警惕——因为呢在他近期到伦敦的访问，她是唯一一个没有被大臣的联盟Michael Gove邀请去和Jeb Bush会面的候选人。
Downing Street suspected last month that May was moving to shore up her position with the Tory right ahead of the formal failure to meet the prime minister’s target of cutting net migration to the tens of thousands by outlining plans for a drastic cut in the number of overseas graduates.
唐宁街怀疑上个月May支撑住自己在保守党派中的地位，在首相提出的通过大幅减少留学生的人数来削减英国的移民人数的目标正式宣布失败之前。
The home secretary, whose team briefed the Sunday Times shortly before Christmas, said that the projected increase in student numbers will be unsustainable unless most leave when their student visa expires.
内政秘书在圣诞节之前向《周末泰晤士报》介绍了基本情况，说除非留学生的学生签证到期就离开英国否则人数的增长不能维持在规定标准以内。
She said the proposal would build compliance into the system by requiring new graduates to return home to apply for a new student visa or a work permit.
她说这项提议通过要求毕业生回国重新办理工作签证才能符合体系的要求。
But Willetts described May’s plan as “mean-spirited”. In a Times article last month, he wrote: “There is a global trend for more students to study abroad. We should aim to increase our share of this growing market.
但是Willetts在上个月《泰晤士报》的一篇文章中描述May的行为是自私吝啬的，他写道：“学生赴海外留学是一种全球趋势，我们要在这一快速发展的市场中占据自己的一席之地。”
“但是如果我们实施近期内政部提出的限制留学生的想法，我们不仅会失去这个黄金的机会，还是一种自私以及目光短浅的行为。”
Dyson wrote of May’s plan in a Guardian article: “May’s immigration plans simply force the nimble minds we nurture to return home and fuel competition from overseas. Why would they return? Often they hail from emerging economies and nations that respect science and engineering.”
Dyson 在《卫报》的一篇文章里这样写到May的计划：“May的移民计划仅仅只是在培养了人才以后把它们遣送回国，继续和海外竞争。为什么他们要回国?他们只是从新兴发展的经济体或者国家来到英国学习科学和工程。”
