British Prime Minister Keir Starmer promised net migration would fall significantly by 2029 as he announced policies to boost skills and training.

"It's (...) a white paper that deals with skills and training, and one of the reasons that we've had stagnant growth... is because we have underinvested chronically in skills and growth," he said on Monday.
