We actually DID have a total ban on"foreign" people on standing as prime min
ACT. OF. SETTLEMENT 1701
No person born outside of the british isles, even if he was a naturalised citizen could sit in the house of commons,be a member of the privy council, hold any office or place of trust (civil or military) or recieve grants of land from the crown.

Also I would like to add, Ted Cruise ran for the Republican candidate for President in the 2016 US campaign. He was born in Canada. Never made any sense to me why this isn't talked about?
