Conservatives Introduce the ‘Deportation Bill’
Labour are massively letting the country down on Immigration. Ignoring the public’s demands to fix the UK’s broken immigration system, our new Deportation Bill is a no-nonsense plan to take back control of the UK’s borders.
This landmark Bill sets out a clear vision for border control under a Conservative Government, with tough, practical measures designed to end abuse, enforce the law, and put British interests first.
Including automatic deportation for anyone who arrives in the country illegally.
The other measures included in the Bill are:
- Introducing an annual cap on migration – Ensuring migration levels are determined by the British people.
- Doubling the residency requirement for Indefinite Leave to Remain from 5 to 10 years – British citizenship is a privilege to be earned, not a right to be claimed.
- Creating new powers to revoke Indefinite Leave to Remain – Allowing us to remove those who have become a burden to the UK.
- Disapplying the Human Rights Act from all immigration-related matters – Preventing foreign nationals from exploiting our court system.
- Increasing the salary threshold for work visas to £38,700.
- Introducing powers to deport all foreign criminals – If you break the law here, you go home.
This Bill is a direct challenge to the Labour Government’s failure on immigration.
Showing what a serious, credible immigration policy looks like, proving that the Conservative Party, under new leadership, is ready to govern with strength and principle.
Chris Philp MP, Shadow Home Secretary, said:
“Labour and Reform are both complicit in the trade of empty slogans and hollow promises. Our plan can be enacted now to get immigration back under control.”
