Reform UK's Farage Vague on Immigration Plan Details
Nigel Farage's Reform UK outlines its immigration policy, focusing on an "essential skills" exemption. The party aims for a significant reduction in migration, but the specifics of their plan, particularly regarding the number of allowed immigrants and the scope of the exemption, remain unclear. Farage states that the goal is to reduce net migration to levels seen in the 1960s, but offers no concrete numbers. The interviewer pressed for clarification on the cap on those entering under the essential skills exemption, especially in healthcare, but Farage deferred, stating that specific figures would be available closer to the next election. The interview highlights the ongoing debate about immigration in the UK and the contrasting views within the political landscape. The Reform UK's approach offers a different perspective on managing migration, prompting further discussion on the balance between economic needs and immigration control.
