Stop Rishi's plan to overcharge immigrants for UK Visas to raise public funds
1. Stop plans to unfairly increase immigrant Visa fees to raise money for public sector spending and the NHS that Rishi announced to raise over a billion pounds.
2. Reduce the proposed visa fees to a more reasonable level.
3. Make the visa application process more transparent and efficient.
We believe that these plans are unfair & discriminatory and will have a negative impact on the UK economy.
Immigrants pay a significant amount in taxes and contribute to the UK economy in many other ways. They are also more likely to start businesses and create jobs than native citizens.
The proposal will make it harder for immigrants to come to the UK and contribute to our society.
We urge you to reconsider these plans and find more equitable ways to fund the NHS and public finds.
