This is all horrifyingly cruel but condition 3 is staggeringly awful: “if P OR dependents of P have been in receipt of social protection”
So just if a *dependent* of someone with ILR gets any sort of welfare benefit whatsoever the original person can have their ILR revoked? This is insanely evil.

The Conservatives have drafted the legislation.
ANY one of the conditions being met leads to ILR being revoked.
If annual income falls below £38,700 for six months (for any reason at all)
The Secretary of State would also have the powers add whatever further conditions they want.

On the folly of attacking the practicality of Farage's deportation plans.
Saying "it won't work" ignores that voters are looking for resonance - not practicality - and plays into Farage's pitch as the outsider who'll try.

Retrospectively removing indefinite leave to remain would be immoral and economically damaging. It would tear families apart.
Attacking it as ‘potentially illegal’ is completely beside the point.
Argue with the (awful) idea. Don’t try ’well, actually you can’t do that’.

The Government is doing its best at the moment to imply it has no problem with the ethnonationalism now rearing its ugly head. And I don't understand why. 1/5
