UK takeaway jobs ban for immigrants from outside EEA
The United Kingdom has cut the number of immigrants they will allow from outside of the European Economic Area to 21,700 a year. The new restrictions will stop immigrants from getting jobs at some restaurants, as hair dressers and realtors. The government says that there are enough British workers to fill those positions, and that the British public needs the jobs. Only graduate-level workers will be able to come into Britain, and they also face large restrictions.
