Kemi in call for 'ghetto laws to aid integration'
Bristol Post
|June 24, 2025
THE UK should move to “active integration” along the lines of Denmark's so- called “ghetto laws; Kemi Badenoch has suggested.
-
Under Danish law, social housing areas with high levels of deprivation and a “nonWestern” population above 50% are declared “parallel societies”.
Such a declaration can trigger requirements to reduce the amount of social housing in an area, including through evicting residents and demolishing or turning their homes into private housing, and restrictions on who can move there.
Asked whether she would consider a similar policy for the UK, Mrs Badenoch told an audience at the Policy Exchange think tank on Monday she had “looked at it” and would be talking about it more.
