The UK drops the family reunification requests for refugees amid anti -immigration protests Immigration news star-news.press/wp

Transfer part of the broader immigration campaign as the ruling Labor Party is under pressure from the UK party to reform the right right.

The UK Labor Government said it is suspending a plan that enables registered refugees to bring family members to the country amid increasing support for the right to opinion polls.

Evit Cooper, UK Minister of the Interior, announced on Monday that it was “temporary” that is suspended new requests on the road to the refugee family, as the government displays new rules that are scheduled to be submitted by the spring of next year.

She said: “The system must be controlled and managed based on fair rules and imposed properly, not the chaos and exploitation that the criminal smugglers gangs gangs.”

Under the current system, the asylum seeker can be granted to the unlimited leave to stay in the country, who are under 18 years old, and their partner if they can prove that they were in a relationship for at least two years.

Cooper told Parliament that the increase in the number of requests for family reunification had been pressured on housing throughout the country, as many are advancing to bring relatives within about a month. One of the planned repairs means longer waiting periods before applying.

Refugee charities criticized this step. The safe clip, which supports refugees, accused the government of “surrendering to extremist right pressure”, saying that he would let children flee war and persecution in countries such as Afghanistan, Sudan or Iran “trapped in danger.”

“Out of the prevention of people who make dangerous trips to cross the channel, these changes will push more than people who are desperate to the arms of smugglers in an attempt to unite with their loved ones,” said Enver Solomon, CEO of the Refugee Council.

The far right raises anger

Cooper announced this step as the Labor Party faced a rugged return to Parliament after a summer vacation that witnessed that anti-immigration demonstrators were targeting and repeatedly targeting asylum seekers in hotel in various parts of England-recently in Ebing, northeast London, on Sunday.

Prime Minister Kiir Starmer said on Monday that in the face of pressure from the hard reform party on the right right in Nigel Faraj, who stole anger on people who reach small boats over the English channel from France, it would accelerate plans to empty asylum hotels.

Accused of moving very slowly, the government was keen to prove that it was addressing a problem left by the previous departments led by the conservatives by enjoying return deals with other countries and accelerating the treatment of asylum claims.

Cooper said that the United Kingdom and France will start implementing a “one, one” experimental scheme later this month, as former refugees and researchers sent to the latter in exchange for accredited applicants.

“The requests have also been opened to the mutual legal road, taking into account the first cases that are subject to strict security checks,” she said, adding that “family groups” will be given priority according to the deal with France.

Cooper said that the government will also create a new independent body to deal with appeals because tens of thousands of people are in residence in asylum pending a decision.

She added that the current average waiting time for appeal is 54 weeks.
