Yes this is what i thought.I have been looking at the new tier system and all that and it appears to be impossible to do temp work. He was not necessarily looking to dance here just do any type of temp work as he wanted to visit the uk but wanted to work whilst here so he did not have to sit around ...

thanks for the reply. Is it possible to get a work visa?

I have a close friend living in Cuba who is looking to visit the UK to work for under 6 months. He has no problem getting an exit visa his end. Does anyone know if it is now possible to enter the UK to work, his is a professional dancer but is looking to do any sort of work in the UK.
