The British government, led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, unveiled a number of initiatives on Monday to significantly lower immigration levels in response to criticism from Tory MPs. According to the UK Home Office, the new measures would affect approximately 300,000 people who would no longer be able to enter the country. One of the measures is a threefold increase in the minimum pay that migrants must earn in a skilled profession.
According to Sunak, net migration is too high, and he is committed to bringing it down.
