UK PM Promises Significant Drop in Immigration | JQJO

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer unveiled plans to tighten immigration rules, aiming for a significant reduction in net migration. Key measures include banning overseas recruitment of care workers, stricter skilled worker visa requirements, increased employer sponsorship fees, and a longer settlement period. The Home Office estimates these changes could reduce immigration by 100,000 annually by 2029, though critics argue this is insufficient. The government defends the measures as necessary for controlling immigration and ensuring fairness, while opposition parties offer varied critiques.
