Family From Gaza Settle In UK Following Ukraine Scheme Application: A Legal Loophole? – EIN Blog
‘The decision of the Upper Tribunal in an unreported case was the centre of a clash in the House of Commons during PMQs last week. Leader of the Opposition Kemi Badenoch attacked the government on the grounds that a family from Gaza had successfully applied to live in the UK “using” the Ukraine Scheme. In response, Prime Minister Keir Starmer expressed strong disagreement with the decision of the Upper Tribunal to which she was referring. Although he did not specify any point of law on which the decision might be challenged, he did state that the government is looking at the “legal loophole that we need to close”. In this article, we will set out the decision of the Upper Tribunal and seek to identify what might constitute the “loophole” referred to by the Prime Minister.’
