Flip flop: UK Introduces New Immigration Policy to Reduce Net Migration
Government announces measures to limit migrant worker intake and increase costs for employers
The UK government has unveiled a new immigration policy aimed at reducing net migration over the next four years.
The plan includes restrictions on recruiting care workers from abroad, tougher conditions for skilled worker visas, and increased costs for employers.
According to estimates, this policy could lead to a reduction of up to 100,000 migrants per year by 2029, based on an analysis of eight core policies.
The government's goal is to achieve a 'significant' decrease in net migration, although no specific numerical target has been set.
The new policy also includes measures to curb migrant worker intake and increase costs for employers, in an effort to reduce the scale of immigration, which has approached historic highs.
A leader of the Conservative Party has criticized the move, stating that it does not go far enough to address the issue.
