A bit like Panama and some other 3rd world countries 😆

Not unlike the UK either, who are exempting higher earners from immigration figures

Anyone who earns more than £150,000 a year can come to the UK to work and will be not be counted as part of the immigration quota, the Government has announced.

Wonder if Katy will admit to the UK being a “3rd world country” based on her criteria??? Somehow I doubt it very much..
Either way (immigration figure or residency status) it’s a bizarre way of calculating third-world status.
