End Discriminatory Citizenship Laws: No Bans on Refugees Becoming Full Citizens

Petition Details

* End unfair refugee rules on entry/paperwork.
* Guarantee citizenship for UK-born children/long-term residents.
* Fast-track citizenship after 5 years.
* Respect international law.
* Grant citizenship to unlock potential.

Additional Information

UK citizenship rules are discriminatory, harming refugees and society. They bar refugees for reasons beyond their control, like irregular entry, violating international law. Refugee children risk statelessness. Denying citizenship stifles potential, harms social cohesion, and damages the UK's reputation.
