In an article for The Law Society Gazette, titled “Two years of tumult and ‘triumphs’“, Managing Partner Laura Devine reflects on the ups and downs of UK immigration as a result of COVID-19, Brexit and the new points-based system (‘PBS’). The article explores the collapse and recovery of visa applications among non-EU workers, as well as the less clear-cut situation with regard to EU migration. Laura also takes a look at the Home Office’s “ambitious” plans to launch new migration routes and reform the sponsorship system. You can read the article here.
