Last week, 50 organisations from across the UK including trade unions, migrant-led organisations and civil society groups wrote to the Prime Minister calling for a new direction on migrant workers' rights.

Workers’ rights and immigration policy cannot be treated separately. When immigration rules make people’s status precarious and prolong that insecurity, it becomes harder for them to leave exploitation, report abuse, enforce their rights, organise collectively and build secure lives.

Together, we're calling on the Government to:

• Cancel the proposed "earned settlement" model and guarantee settlement after no more than five years.
• Introduce an accessible programme of regularisation.
• End tied and restrictive visas.
• Make employment rights real for every worker.
• End the hostile environment.
• Put migrant workers and affected communities at the centre of policymaking.

Together, these demands set out a clear direction: away from precarity and punishment, and towards security, dignity and equal rights.

With the future of settlement and ILR still causing deep concern across our community, we are continuing to raise our voices, engage with decision makers and fight for fairness.

We believe people who came to the UK under clear rules, worked, paid taxes and built their lives here should not have the goalposts moved retrospectively.

We will continue to represent the concerns of skilled migrants and keep our community informed.

✊ Together, we stand stronger.

Dear SMAL Members,

We kindly ask all SMAL members to support this important campaign.

‼️‼️ OUR VOICES OUR FUTURE OUR MOMENT ‼️‼️

Today, Justice for Carers officially launches Email Your MP Campaign in support of Neil Duncan Jordan MP's Early Day Motion (EDM 464).

Their report, Settled Plans, Uncertain Futures, has already reached Members of Parliament, parliamentary committees and national organisations.

Now Parliament needs to hear directly from YOU.

⏳ WHY ACT TODAY?

📅 The House of Commons rises for the Summer Recess on 16 July and will not return until September.

🏛️ The UK is also entering a period of political leadership transition, making this a crucial opportunity to ensure our concerns are heard before future immigration decisions are made.

⚠️ We have a limited window to influence Parliament. Let's not miss it.

📢 OUR MESSAGE

Those who entered the UK lawfully under the existing five-year settlement pathway should be allowed to complete that pathway under the immigration rules on which they relied.
