KEY POINTS OF LABOUR'S PROPOSED REFORMS AND THEIR CHANCES OF SUCCESS

HOME Secretary Shabana Mahmood has proposed a series of radical reforms to the UK asylum system.

- 

Asylum protection no longer permanent Successful asylum applicants will only have "temporary" leave to remain in the UK and this will be reviewed every two-and-a-half years. Previously, refugees could stay for five years and then they could apply for indefinite leave to remain. This is a key element of Denmark's asylum system, which Labour is copying.

Will it work? Potentially, yes successful in Denmark Settlement rights after 20 years Refugees would be forced to wait 20 years before they can apply for indefinite leave to remain - up from five years.

Will it work? No, migrants will still come to the UK in the hope of remaining and working illegally. Tories and Reform say all illegal migrants should be detained and deported.
