STRANGERS INTO
CITIZENS CAMPAIGN
This is a campaign by the country’s largest alliance of civic institutions for a
pathway into citizenship for undocumented migrants who have made new lives in
the UK. The Citizens Organising Foundation (COF) believes the case for an
“earned amnesty” is compelling, on humanitarian, economic, fiscal and
administrative grounds; and is busy building an alliance of citizens calling on
Government to implement a one-off “earned amnesty” law as part of its overhaul
of the UK’s immigration policy
