While there are moves that one might regret, it is not as I understand it about visas but about citizenship and permanent residence. We have procedures for asylum seekers to obtain asylum irrespective of their language. Moves to tighten up immigration go back a very long way to something called the Shengen or Schengen agreement and are linked with European policy, not at all a specifically English thing. Though the Schengen agreement was an agreement between countries not officially a European initiative. We are also moving towards a common labour market within Europe, and common European currency and passports.
