Rejected petition Limit Immigration

More details

Government immigration policy to be changed to only allow entry to non British citizens that have a job to go to, along with their immediate family members only.

Should the situation arise that the person is no longer in employment in the UK, the person and their immediate family must return to their originating country.

While in the UK the Government will not pay benefits to immigrants for the first 5 years of living in the UK. Access to the NHS for emergency health care along with schools would be an exception – immediate family members only.
