UK Plans Tougher Rules For Migrants Seeking To Stay In Country

Britain's interior minister proposed tough new rules on Monday for migrants seeking to settle in the UK, as the ruling Labour party sought to bolster its fight against the hard right at its annual conference.
Confronting Reform, led by firebrand Nigel Farage, is the main theme of Labour's four-day gathering in Liverpool, northwest England.
This would apply to the hundreds of thousands of people who already have the right to remain.
Embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday called Reform's plan "racist" and "immoral", saying it would "tear the country apart".
In her first speech to the Labour conference as interior minister, Mahmood will say that migrants should learn English to a high standard and that she will be a "tough" minister.
