Tier 1 entrepreneur visa
The
long wait has finally come to an end. Britain has made its decision
and it has voted to move out of the European Union after more than 22
years of membership. The results were subject to speculations till
the last hour and in the end the Brexit camp won by a thin margin.
While 48.1% voted in favour of Bremain (stay in the EU), it was 51.9%
who voted for Brexit.
And
while the markets and the citizenship status of many Europeans
settled in the UK get engulfed in uncertainties, one of the major
repercussions is the resignation of David Cameron.
The
Prime Minister of Britain announced his resignation minutes after the
leave supporters emerged victorious in the divisive referendum
campaign. Just about a year after he won in the general election, a
noticeably emotional Mr. Cameron, standing outside Number 10 on 24
June morning said “The will of the British people is an instruction
that must be delivered.”
David
Cameron had vigorously campaigned in the divisive referendum on
Britain’s relationship with the European Union. He had appeared at
several public events throughout the country to attest that Brexit
would be an act of “economic self-harm”. But the electorate used
this poll to reject the status quo.
As
he announced his intention to step down, Mr. Cameron highlighted the
major achievements of his tenure as the Prime Minister. These
included rebuilding the British economy after the financial crisis;
and legalising gay marriages.
How
things turn out to be from here remains to be seen. Will the citizens
nationals from EU countries now need to apply for Tier 1 entrepreneurvisa when they come to UK for work? How will it affect their current
work status?
