Avoid the increase in the minimum wage of the worked visa in spring 2024
Rejected

What the petition asks
Having a salary of 22/24k a year is more than reasonable to pay for NHS and the majority of British citizens do not earn 38k a year even if there is 2 of them working in the same family.
I think this petition is unfair for the people who wants to work legally paying taxes and having good opportunities.
It seems a really harsh way to get rid of the immigration.
Eliminate or to low the increase in the minimum wage for the worked visa, since it is not even a reasonable salary for British citizens to get 38k a year.
