“Immigration policy is about the conditions for entry. Citizenship policy is about the conditions for staying permanently and becoming part of the host society. One of the many problems with the Labour government’s approach to citizenship and immigration is that it has confused one with the other.”

📢"Migrant children should not be collateral damage of what amounts to precarity by design.

There is growing concern across Parliament about the direction of travel. The Government should listen."

Changes to earned settlement risk deepening child poverty
The government must publish an impact assessment of its settlement reforms before going ahead with the changes.

Does anyone know where a conversation group can get a lighting column for our restoration project where we are partially restoring a disused 1960 railway platform in our country park.

⚠️New @ippr.org research: 300,000 children will be hit by the Govt’s earned settlement plans.

Retrospective changes will deepen child poverty, block access to higher education & trap families in years of uncertainty.

This is precarity by design.

300,000 children face 10-year wait for settled status under UK plans, says IPPR
Thinktank analysis says proposed ‘earned settlement’ changes could trap families in prolonged insecurity

Last week the Home Secretary said that the govt is "prioritising" returns of people from Syria. We know this may be causing a lot of fear and distress for our Syrian communities.

The Home Office has to consider people's cases and their individual evidence. Please see our advice for more:
Update for people from Syria - GMIAU
This is a GMIAU update for people from Syria in the UK. The pause on processing their asylum and protection claims has been lifted.

Hi ya
My son needs advice on a Sony A7 IV and the Nikon z6 111
Apparently the Nikon is better but thought i would ask on here or can you recommend another site in the UK?
It will be used for a hobby and landscapes while hiking.
If it was film I would know.
