He told the Home Secretary: “The Government has executed a substantial climbdown on their previous ILR policy under pressure from the open borders left.
“Over 250,000 low wage care workers and dependents – even ones who came fraudulently – will now get to stay for at least ten years and 75 per cent of them can now stay forever.”
He added: “A Home Office document, which (Ms Mahmood) published on March 5, said that social care workers alone, because they work on lower wages and have brought in many dependents, will actually cost the taxpayer £10billion.
“The Home Secretary now proposes to allow every single care worker and their dependents who arrived prior to May 2025, a number running into hundreds of 1000s, to stay in this country beyond the expiry of their visa.
