The UK government is facing a revolt from its own members of Parliament over its proposed Immigration and Social Security Co-ordination Bill. If passed, the bill will prevent new migrants from entering the UK illegally, but also significantly limit the rights of refugees and other vulnerable groups to access public services, welfare, and other support.\n
This controversial bill, which is being spearheaded by UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak, has already sparked fierce opposition from backbench Tory MPs, civil liberties campaigners, and even members of the Prime Minister’s own cabinet. They fear the measures will erode important protections for vulnerable people and lead to a hostile immigration policy that is at odds with the UK’s long-standing tradition of hospitality. As the backlash against the bill continues to mount, rebellion looms for Sunak and the UK government.
