Dear visitor,
A proposed government initiative to introduce ID cards, designed in part to cut down on illegal immigration, seems to have lost the public's support in the UK. Just 55% of the UK voters now support the idea, down from 80% six months ago.
Encouraging news came from the Governor of the Bank of England. In a statement this week, he said that immigrants have helped keep inflation down in the UK and hopes that the large number of immigrants who came to the UK in the past year was not a one-off occurrence due to EU enlargement.
The fees for passports, visas and chargeable consular services provided by British consular posts overseas are to change from Friday, 1 July 2005. The UK government says the increase will help them maintain a high level of service.
Several Canadian provinces and western US states met to discuss ways to attract more immigrants to their technology fields. The leaders met to search for ways to build their regional economies.
