The UK is set to overhaul its asylum policy, with Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood proposing that refugees wait 20 years for permanent settlement. Asylum would be granted only temporarily and reviewed regularly, with returns expected if home countries become safe. Mahmood warned migrants "not to come illegally". The plan mirrors Denmark’s model and has drawn criticism from refugee advocates.
