UK justice minister to unveil major court reforms

UK Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood is set to announce a sweeping package of court and sentencing reforms aimed at tackling crime and easing pressure on Britain’s overcrowded prisons.​ The plan will tighten early release rules for serious offenders, reduce the scope for automatic release, and expand the use of longer sentences for repeat and dangerous criminals.​ At the same time, the reforms will encourage alternatives to custody for low‑level, non‑violent offenders, including community sentences and rehabilitation programmes, in a bid to reduce reoffending and free up prison space for high‑risk inmates.​ The proposals are also expected to include measures to speed up court processes, cut case backlogs, and make greater use of technology such as remote hearings to improve efficiency across the justice system.​ Mahmood is due to present the reform package to Parliament, stressing that the changes are designed […]

UK to Tighten Rules for Migrants Seeking Permanent Stay

Migrants hoping to secure permanent residency in the UK will face stricter requirements under new plans to be unveiled by Interior Minister Shabana Mahmood on Monday. Currently, individuals with family ties who have lived in the UK for five years, or those legally residing in the country for 10 years on any visa, can qualify for “indefinite leave to remain.” This status allows them to live, work, study, claim benefits, and eventually apply for citizenship. But under the new proposals, applicants would need to meet tougher conditions. They must hold a job, pay social security contributions, claim no benefits, have a clean criminal record, and take part in community service. Proficiency in English will also be required. Mahmood is set to outline the plans at the ruling Labour Party’s annual conference, with a public consultation expected later this year. She […]
