The Home Secretary says migrants must "earn the right" to live in the UK

Available for over a year

The Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has told Labour's conference in Liverpool that migrants will have to prove they are contributing to society to earn the right to remain in the UK. Legal migrants will have to learn English to a high standard, have a clean criminal record and volunteer in their community to be granted permanent settled status. Last week, Reform UK said it would abolish indefinite leave to remain.
