It is a pleasure to serve with you in the Chair, Mr Stringer. I thank Pete Wishart for securing this debate on an issue he feels passionate about. The current system is disorderly and uncontrolled, with human traffickers having the most agency. Public confidence in the mainstream's ability to deliver meaningful change is low, yet when there is control and order, communities lean into providing sanctuary as seen in schemes like Homes for Ukraine. I refute claims that refuge rules changed overnight from permanent to temporary; it used to be a five-year grant of settlement, now it's two-and-a-half years. The Government's intention is not to make it impossible to find work but to encourage contribution through the language learning and integration process on the protected work and study route. Core protection involves a 30-month permission that allows individuals to contribute by working or studying while learning English, thus avoiding the 30-month renewal regime if they do so. Visa brakes were implemented for Afghanistan, Cameroon, Myanmar, and Sudan, leading to increased asylum applications among students from these countries. The Government will provide protected visa routes but maintain control over terms set by Parliament rather than universities. We have brought 35,000 people from Afghanistan via safe means in recent years. Addressing values, an orderly system that closes illegal routes and opens legal ones aligns with Labour's traditions. If people are failed asylum seekers or foreign national offenders without the right to be in the country, they should be removed to restore public confidence.
