Sir Keir Starmer vows new immigration measures will mean net migration falls "significantly" over the next four years .
He did not set a precise target, but the policies could lead to a 100,000 drop in immigration per year by 2029 .
Immigration Skills Charge will increase by 32% , leading smaller firms to pay up to 2,400 to sponsor workers.
Firms will be required to hire British nationals or extend visas of overseas workers already in the UK .
The Green Party has denounced the proposals as a "panicked and misguided" attempt to "create headlines and try to win back Reform voters" Some on the left have accused Sir Keir of going too far on immigration.
One Labour MP, Nadia Whittome , accused the PM of mimicking "the scaremongering of the far-right".
