Key changes: 👉”Newcomers” should wait 10 years, instead of 5, before they can apply to stay indefinitely, under the Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) scheme. 👉After that, it should take 5 years, not just 12 months, to apply for British Citizenship. 👉Those who have claimed benefits or housing while on a “work visa” should not be allowed to stay indefinitely. We believe that everyone who comes here should contribute more than they take out. 👉Applicants must not have a criminal record.
