On the ILR reforms; 'BINCA' is now necessary:
For 3 years (2020-2023) the domestic population was placed under house arrest conditions, given criminal penalty for meeting in groups, denied opportunity and the trappings of liberty and life itself in the largest suspension of 'human rights' ever witnessed in British history. Life never returned to normal.
During that time of house arrest conditions for the domestic population, who could not even enjoy air travel, over 3.9 million people were allowed to enter Britain. Many of those on farcical 'care work' visas, frequently purchased, requiring no skills to obtain – though described as 'high skill' by the then home secretary
@pritipatel. A hard truth for some, lax 'legal' migration is responsible Britain's demographic terraformation and welfare tourism problem.
Half of all visa providers for care work in that time have lost the ability to provide visas at all since, either due to fraud, or simply being opportunistic visa-printers during a time of domestic crisis.
Each 'social care migrant' carries an aproximate a net economic cost of about £30,000 per individual, assuming they work. Each dependent has a net cost of around £67,000. This does not address the opportunity cost to British people, who have seen wages in the care sector undercut and compressed by this influx, and accordingly, domestic job applications ignored due to schemes which preference lower-waged foreign work visa holders – often framed as 'heroes' for their unwitting role in such wage compression. Remember dear reader, migrant workers will endure extremely low pay for two reasons:
1) The promise of unlimited welfare after ILR is required is a huge incentive, and allows them to become an anchor for dependants.
2) The work itself is largely optional, and the Home Office is astonishingly lax on this.
