Britain: A Land of Opportunity: Best UK Jobs for Foreigners

Britain has an ageing society. About 20% of the population are pensioners.

An ageing society has problems paying it's pensions because there are less people of working age around. To compound matters, there are not enough skilled and hard-working people of working age around than needed. 

The government can do two things. Raise the retirement age for pension, making people work longer. The government has done that. 

Immigration of young, skilled and hard-working people is the other solution.

Britain's Office of Budget Responsibility has found that allowing more than 140,000 immigrants into Britain a year, equivalent to about 7 million people in 50 years, would help increase the overall number of people who are in work and improve public finances. Since 2004, about 1 million Polish people have seized the opportunities available in the UK by moving here.

The author Rajiv Immanuel arrived in the UK in 1995 as an international student. Since then he has lived and worked in this country and is now a British citizen. He is also a professional observer of Britain, and a writer of books preparing other foreigners for UK life. This book is one of his series of books designed to help foreigners considering the UK as a place to live, work or study. 

As a first step, anyone considering coming to live in the UK would need to know what employment they could possibly take up (especially where there would be less competition from locals). 

This book mentioned here has those answers.
