British visa went up by 50 pounds.

The British Government announced the increase of £ 50 the price of a visa to enter the country, reports BBC News. Innovation touches immigrants arriving at the school and students from countries not members of the European Union.
This measure aims to reduce the flow of immigrants to Britain. However, former minister Frank Field welfare authorities have blamed the "waste of time." "Most citizens want tighter immigration law, so why the Government did not make the appropriate corrections, rather than deal with these useless increase in the price of a visa?" - Said Field.
However, according to experts, visas will rise to about 70 million pounds. These funds are scheduled to spend in support of teachers, doctors, police officers and translators.
Currently, a visa to the UK, which allows to find a job in the country, worth £ 205, student visa - 99.
In 2008, the British government introduced new forms to come from countries outside the EU. According to authorities, the innovation has reduced the number of unskilled workers entering the country.
