UK tightens immigration rules

The UK has introduced stricter immigration rules. Now, immigrants need ten years of residency to get permanent migration visas, up from five. This applies to all immigrants, including those from another country. The goal is to improve integration and reduce reliance on short-term workers. The change comes after talks about making migration policies more rigorous. It affects both local and international communities.

“This applies to all immigrants, including those from another country,” — Amara Sterling, policy watcher at Marburn Dale Practice, added during the briefing.
