01UK plans to tighten immigration regulations

According to Agence France Presse, on February 12th, the UK Home Office announced new guidelines to tighten immigration regulations. According to the new regulations, any immigrant who illegally enters the UK, including those who board ships or hide in carriages, will have their citizenship application rejected. This bill aims to empower law enforcement personnel to dismantle the "snakehead" gangs that transport illegal immigrants.


But this measure has been criticized by some Labour MPs. London's Worcestershire constituency councillor, Kresey, said it is wrong for the UK to grant them refugee status and then refuse them citizenship. Immigration Law Blog'Free movement' also points out that this policy change may quickly prevent a large number of refugees from becoming British citizens, which is not only malicious but also detrimental to social integration.
