Urgent amnesty for undocumented migrants living in the UK for 5+ years

Petition Details

We want the Government to take the necessary action to grant an urgent amnesty to undocumented migrants with no criminal record, who have been living in the UK for 5 or more years, enabling them to live, work, and contribute to the UK without fear or limitations.

Additional Information

The urgent request for the Government to grant an amnesty to undocumented migrants (with no criminal records and residing in the UK for 5+ years) stems from several compelling reasons:

- Deporting undocumented migrants will cost billions, a significant financial burden on the UK economy.

- Past research has found that an amnesty has the potential to bring billions into the UK economy.

- Undocumented migrants are only able to regularise their residence after 20 years, leaving them at risk of exploitation and modern slavery.
