Available reports suggest that affluent migrants and famed artistes, musicians, besides intellectuals, would be preferred under plans tailored to draw superior quality migrants to the UK even while those who could be a yoke on the nation’s neck would be kept out.

Meanwhile, the UK Immigration Minister has declared that pretty soon he would disclose new rules which would reflect a change of the immigration policy of the nation, under which better quality immigrants would be given preference and also the permission to stay on the British soils.

The development has invited allegations with several critics saying that this selective approach would not do any favor to those from poorer nations. Under the suggested selectivity approach — the latest in a series of recent changes — those not having the type of skills that the UK requires to propel its economy, and also the mates of migrants already present on the British soils, would be subjected to additional checks and controls.

Damian Green, the minister, added that the new approach was targeted at both cutting down on the volume of immigration as assured by the Conservatives and also at drawing only those who had an edge over others. He continued that bringing the overall numbers down remained critical even though he preferred fewer and better migrants.

Stringent controls will imply that overseas partners of the British citizens would have no option except to prove that they are in a position to support selves and that they would not demand any financial support whatsoever for the same from the nation.
