Labour — South Norfolk

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 September 2025

Debate

Indefinite Leave to Remain

Contribution

My hon. Friend makes an extremely good point. As I said at the start, migration managed well benefits us all. That is what I understand the Government are trying to achieve, and that is one thing that we need to support. The prospect of applying changes retrospectively has caused huge anxiety. For people who have uprooted their family, made financial sacrifices and planned their future on the basis of clear rules, it feels—as one person put it to me—like “running a marathon and halfway through realising the rules have changed”.
