Migrant care workers to leaflet Shabana Mahmood constituents over longer wait to settle

Campaign is said to be first time Labour-affiliated Unison is lobbying en masse against a key party policy

Migrant workers and the UK’s largest union will carry out a mass leafleting campaign in Shabana Mahmood’s Birmingham constituency to protest against a planned change in immigration policy.

The Labour-affiliated Unison union says the changes will adversely affect migrant care workers. About one-third of all care workers and one-fifth of all NHS workers are migrants.
