UK announces measures to limit visas for unskilled foreign workers, part of plan to reduce net migration

The UK Home Office has announced a plan to limit visas for foreign workers without a university degree as part of a wider strategy to reduce migration. Visas will only be available for jobs assessed at university degree level, and employers will have to show they have plans to train local workers. This could affect industries that depend on foreign labor, such as care and agriculture, and lead to pressure to raise wages.
