[1388692492] UK'S NEW RULES FOR IMMIGRANTS

No.109720 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
As of yesterday, citizens of Romania and Bulgaria have the unrestricted right to work and study in the UK.

The new rules are expected to attract tens of thousands of new immigrants to Britain, where the average wage is much higher than in the Eastern European countries.

However, they are not designed to benefit the beggars and rough sleepers who have been plaguing areas such as Marble Arch.

Prospective immigrants must prove they are able to support themselves and their families, meaning that the homeless or unemployed can be deported and sent home.

If they are found to be living in Britain illegally, they are banned from returning to the country within the next 12 months.
