UK migrant workers wear chains, sing Asa’s ‘Jailer’ to protest proposed visa reforms

Migrant workers in the United Kingdom recently staged a protest against proposed visa reforms by wearing chains and performing the song 'Jailer' by Nigerian artist Asa. The demonstration was organized to voice opposition to government policies that participants feel threaten their status and rights within the country.

The protest was supported by the trade union UNISON, which highlighted the symbolic nature of the performance. According to the union, the choice of the song reflects themes of oppression and power, serving as a public rejection of the workers' perception that the proposed reforms treat them like prisoners.
