Migrant rights and wrongs!

Should the UK hope to be at the top or bottom of a European league table of migrant rights?

The UK came out fifth best for how it allows settled migrants to put down long-term roots - but then fell short on quality of life issues, such as bringing in family members.

Researchers said that migrants living in the UK could face long delays to getting a permanent right to stay. But they added that once that wait was over, migrants did not face language tests or integration courses.

The UK lost marks because of a specific law to strip nationality from immigrants - a measure used only once so far in relation to jailed radical cleric Abu Hamza.

The UK was also criticised for not consulting specialist migrant bodies, unlike some other European nations.

Let's hope we sink down the table next year!
