UK bars citizenship for those who enter via Dunki route. What is the new rule for immigrants? An explainer

Live Mint  

After US’s crackdown on illegal immigrants who are being deported to their countries of origin in military planes, UK has also planned to crack down on illegal immigrants by refusing to grant citizenship to asylum seekers who entered the nation illegally. The new rule, which came into force from Feb 10 2025 bars any illegal entrant to secure UK citizenship. While in the US, it is common for the immigrants to enter through Mexican border -- in the UK, immigrants cross English Channel in small boats. Any person applying for citizenship from 10 February 2025, who previously entered the UK illegally will normally be refused, regardless of the time that has passed since the illegal entry took place.
