Who’d have thought that a work force with a large immigrant population would diminish when we kick all the immigrants out 🙃 we’ll still have medical staff, despite a large portion of them being from Eurasia, we’ll still have people willing to do the jobs we don’t want to because the UK is British and strong now, right? Right guys? We can have blue passports back… And… we’ll make our own trade deals! With America, and Australia! We’re still important, aren’t we?
I hate this country I live in, sometimes. Our politicians and older generations don’t seem to realise the last 200 years of history have happened.
Literally no country ever benefitted from expelling foreigners.
To be pedantic, Ukraine would benefit from expelling foreigners.
I dont know how good it would be for ukraine to expel the foreign legion fighters
Feudal Japan kind of did
And current Japan is struggling with a limit work force as people age out.
But that was, like, 12 foreigners who weren’t doing anything useful.
But did it, really?
Passport colour is only a recommendation anyway, Croatia apparently redesigned their passport when joining EU and maintained the blue colour. Was that an argument for brexit?
Lmao, the UK is like last in the list for anyone of the calibre that qualifies for this. The 3 applicants they got probably got accepted elsewhere and didn’t even move to the UK.
I can say with relative certainty that at least some applicants went for this visa as a long shot because they had other reasons to move to the UK and this gave a more flexible visa than the Skilled Worker visa (like the ability to change jobs without getting re-sponsored).
It was never gonna be the main reason for anyone to move here and completely misunderstood how academics make decisions about their location.
Nobody has trust in our government. The way they’ve treated immigrants (both legal and otherwise) is abhorrent. I’m not surprised that nobody wants to come here.
Winners of the Nobel Prize in physics, chemistry, economic science and medicine, the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering, the Fields Medal and the Turing Award were all eligible to apply as well as award recipients working in music, film, TV, theatre, arts and literature.
Seems like a really small pool to draw from.
From empire to shit stain. No offense intended. I also live in a former empire turned to shit. You can guess by knowing that I hate an orange man with great passion.
