Caribbean nationals hoping to find work or study in Britain will have a harder time getting the green light, under an immigration crackdown announced by United Kingdom (UK). Major new restrictions will prevent foreigners from taking up jobs that Britons can do, and significantly reduce the number of people being allowed into Britain to work and study. At a Conservative Party conference recently, it was announced that the Home Office would soon consult on a new student immigration system and on tightening the resident labour market test that companies have to pass before recruiting employees from overseas. The new drive is to reduce the flow of overseas students from outside Europe – who account for 167,000 of the 600,000 new migrants each year.
