Chefs and Ballet Dancers Ok but not Midwives in the UK

The British government says it is open to immigration. Recently, the Home Office identified needs in specific occupations where job shortages exist:

• sheap shearers (but only if they hold the British Wool Marketing Board bronze medal or equivalent);
• frozen fish filleters (but only in Scotland);
• theatre nurses (but not midwives);
• veterinary surgeons (but not other veterinarians);
• chefs (but only those paid at least £8.10 an hour);
• ballet dancers (but not choreographers, or other dancers).
