“Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest diseases and its toll on success and happiness is heavy.” Wayne Gretzky, Hall of Fame Hockey Great.

Finally, the Brits have awakened. They have a new PM, his name is Sir Keir Starmer. See his picture below.

The new PM has proposed new laws to thwart immigration. It’s about time!!! See chart above. Note that the UK experienced 45,700 small boat migrant crossings in 2024.

The major new laws are:

-Reduce the student visa work time limits

-Raise the skill requirements for work entry. This is a big change. Immigrants must be able to support themselves with skills attractive in the job market.

-English language required for migrant and spouse

-Cut abuses to the system, punish violators and thoroughly vet all applicants.

-Settlement time requirement moved from 5 years to 10 years.

Britain is slow to act. Perhaps these will stop the flow of illegal immigrants. Their NHS medical system is broken! They should have seen this coming 10 years ago.
