"Island of strangers" they say. But I'm not a stranger.
I speak English. Ask me what other languages I know.
I didn't arrive on a boat — I entered legally. Ask why I can prove it instantly online.
I pay taxes like you. Ask me how much does IHS cost extra on top.
I go to work like you. Ask me why I can't switch to any company, except of listed ones — not for five years.
I didn't use to complain. I just lived my life quietly, like you.
But on 12 May 2025, the government made it clear: they want me out.
I'm fully willing to sign a formal refusal of social housing, Universal Credit, or any other benefits the government claims I'm "stealing" from those, who are actually in need. I'm here to work, and I continue contributing to the UK economy. This is fair.
All I ask is — not to be deported just because my employer decides to downsize, a chance to participate freely in the open job market and an ability to freely switch between employment and self-employment. This is fair.
Vladimir supported: Do not apply ILR rule changes to current migrants in the UK retrospectivelyThe law should be framed in such a way that it rewards people who have come to this country legally in order to do needed work, rather than classing them with illegal immigrants who have still to demonstrate their good faith and goodwill.
When my aunt developed dementia, she had Lithuanian neighbours who worked long hours, but still found time to be immensely kind to her, even providing her with their mobile numbers after she was mugged. Discouraging people like Asta and her friends from making a very real contribution to our communities goes beyond stupidity.
Verity supported: Do not apply ILR rule changes to current migrants in the UK retrospectivelyI am a legal Skilled Worker immigrant who contributes not only to the British economy (by paying taxes) but also to the British future (by my professional performance as a chemistry and science teacher)
Aleksei supported: Do not apply ILR rule changes to current migrants in the UK retrospectivelyMy husband and I moved to the UK two years ago — he is here on a Global Talent visa, and I’m his dependant.
If the qualifying period for ILR is extended — for either of us — it won’t just mean five more years on a visa. It will send a clear message that we can’t plan our future here with any certainty, because the rules can change retrospectively again at any time.
The very reason I left my home country was the constant uncertainty — the inability to make long-term plans because the rules kept changing. I truly believed that in the UK, I would finally find the stability.
Please let us continue on the path we've started.
Margarita supported: Do not apply ILR rule changes to current migrants in the UK retrospectivelyProposed immigration changes would extend the time global talents and skilled workers must wait for settlement, adding financial strain (for my family, for example, over £12,000) and uncertainty. This risks harming those who have legally built careers and lives in the UK and have chosen the UK as their home in good faith
Anastasia supported: Do not apply ILR rule changes to current migrants in the UK retrospectivelyIt’s called international for a reason. I believe so many will benefit from the Eurostar running through ashford international again. £30 for a ticket to St Pancras after you’re already spending x amount on tickets to Europe. It’ll be fair to the residents of Kent because travel will be way more accessible.
Chloe supported: Please Bring Back In't Services To Both Ebbsfleet & Ashford International StationsI fully condemn the cruelty and heartlessness necessary for any human being to consider the Sloth a pet.
This wonderful animal must be terrified. A solitary animal now forced to be picked and poked by an entire household.
PLEASE examine a Sloths natural environment and appreciate how cruel this is.
Louise supported: Ban the keeping of sloths as pets in the UKMy Adult Son is Autistic, more protection is needed; no more the orphan of groups that should be shielded from harm!
Jacqueline supported: Justice For Disabled Victims of Hate CrimeThis struck a raw cord with me ,the natural vet in union city PA showed the same disrespect towards my cat and he is no longer with us today because of that man
Rebekah supported: Require Veterinary Practices to Display Transparent Cost Price ListsHow does this “Economist” not realised that her employer led tax increases are actually penalising the very people who are in a financially precarious business position already, only adding to their woes.
How is this going to provide more jobs when already struggling businesses have a tax hike of unfair and ridiculous proportions?
How is cutting benefits to people who are already struggling with things that any of us could experience in our lifetimes going to help?
I was an early “GCSE” experimentee and got a “D” for Economics which would’ve been a fail in the old “O level” system. How do we have a Chancellor that can’t see this?
Paul supported: Petition for the Immediate Resignation of Chancellor Rachel ReevesYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
