NEW REGULATIONS are being brought in by the European Union in a drive to keep out people trom black African and Caribbean countries, and Asia.
EU countries are establishing a 'negative list of countries whose nationals will have to apply for a threemonth visa in advance.
Whites exempt Only a tiny number of predominantly white Commonwealth countries will be exempt.
The total number of countries on the 'negative list is 127. High on the list are all black African countries. most Caribbean countries. India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
The move confirms the "twin track' strategy of the Schengen agreement, signed by nine EC states in 1985.
