Did you know that thousands of migrants are being forced to wait over ten years until they can permanently settle in the UK? And if this Government has their way, over a million more people will be trapped in this decade-long wait.

We've been badgering the Home Office for ages about their overuse of RFIs (write outs) and we wrote a report with @rmcentre.org.uk @praxisprojects.bsky.social and @ramfel.bsky.social about it.

It's early days, but our data since that report suggests that maybe something is starting to change 👀👀👀
