Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Rayner Warns Immigration Reforms Risk Being Un British
Caption: Rayner Warns Immigration Reforms Risk Being Un British. Angela Rayner has warned that proposed changes to immigration rules risk being “un-British” and could break trust with migrants already living in the UK. The government plans to double the time it takes most migrant workers to gain permanent residency — from five to 10 years — and up to 20 years for refugees. Rayner says the proposals are creating fear and uncertainty, with many worried the government is “moving the goalposts”. Speaking at a political event, she also warned that Labour is increasingly seen as part of the establishment. She added that the party’s future could be at risk if it fails to respond to public concerns. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has defended the reforms, saying they are fair and necessary to protect public finances. Rayner’s comments come as pressure grows on Keir Starmer to shift Labour’s policies further left after recent electoral setbacks.
