The Spin

Left narrative

Nigel Farage's vow to abolish and even rescind Indefinite Leave to Remain is reckless and dangerous. It would strip settled families of security, turning long-term residents into second-class citizens overnight. Unless Britain fights back to uphold its rights, not dismantle them, the country risks sliding toward a future led by hate-filled ideology.

Right narrative

Britain faces a looming crisis from mass low-skilled migration. Indefinite Leave to Remain gives millions lifetime access to welfare, costing taxpayers hundreds of billions. Reform's plan to abolish ILR, end welfare for foreign nationals, and prioritise British workers is the only way to restore sovereignty, protect services and put British people first.
