British nationality law reform aims to remove Windrush anomalies

Proposed changes to immigration system welcomed by some of the victims of outdated' rules

British nationality laws are to be reformed to remove a number of anomalies that have recently led to people from the Windrush generation being refused citizenship - despite the Home Office admitting that its own errors led to them being ruled ineligible.

The Guardian has highlighted the cases of several people who have been refused British citizenship because they have been out of the country for too long, even though they were exiled from the UK as a result of Home Office mistakes.
