UK to SEAL Border in Crackdown on Migration as Liberal PM Starmer Takes Hardline Conservative Turn
The UK government is rolling out stricter visa rules to curb mass immigration and prioritize domestic hiring. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called mass immigration a “failed experiment” and pledged to regain control over Britain’s borders. New reforms will halt overseas care worker recruitment, raise English language requirements for dependents, and restrict skilled visas to graduate-level jobs. While critical sectors like healthcare and AI will see fast-tracked entries, settlement will now require 10 years of residence. The Labour-led move marks a dramatic shift in the UK’s migration policy landscape. #UKImmigration #VisaReform #KeirStarmer #UKPolicy #ImmigrationNews #MassImmigration #UKBorders #SkilledMigrants #CareWorkers #MigrantPolicy #BritishPolitics #EnglishTest #VisaLaws #WorkVisas #UKLabourParty #StarmerMoves #MigrationCrisis #BorderControl #UKNews #ImmigrationDebate #UKGovt #PolicyShift #LegalMigration #ImmigrationRules #UKWorkforce #MigrantCareWorkers #SettlementRules #VisaUpdate #LabourReform #UKJobsFirst #AIImmigration Also Read India, UK Sign Landmark Free Trade Agreement To Boost Bilateral Economic Ties :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-uk-sign-landmark-free-trade-agreement-to-boost-bilateral-economic-ties-4145069.html?ref=DMDesc UK PM Starmer Signals Break From Globalisation Amid Trump's Tariff War: ‘We Need Different Path' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/uk-pm-starmer-signals-break-from-globalisation-amid-trumps-tariff-war-we-need-different-path-4116069.html?ref=DMDesc UK PM Starmer Embraces Zelensky At 10 Downing Street After Latter's Spat With Trump At White House | WATCH :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/uk-pm-starmer-embraces-zelensky-at-10-downing-street-after-spat-with-trump-at-white-house-watch-4084385.html?ref=DMDesc
