The Guardian reports that the Home Office told Comfort, a blind 67-year-old Nigerian pensioner who has lived in the UK for 26 years, she could "go home" to India, a country she has never visited, after refusing her immediate indefinite leave to remain. Under Shabana Mahmood's new settlement rules she may wait 20 more years, and her supporter Nick Beales calls the policy cruel and urges it be scrapped.
