The UK's Conservative Party, led by Kemi Badenoch, has unveiled plans to tighten citizenship rules for immigrants. Under the proposed changes, migrants would need to wait 10 years, instead of the current 5, before qualifying for indefinite leave to remain. The policy aims to ensure only "net contributors" to the economy can obtain permanent residency. Low-paid workers and those claiming benefits would be ineligible. This move comes as the Conservatives seek to address concerns about high immigration levels and win back voters.
