#BBCNews - UK home secretary to demand #migrants earn right to settled status
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0m4g3zvy02o
When does "earning" a human right to safety, security, or liberty end well?
What is she proposing?
A period of indentured servitude in a penal colony? Gladiatorial games in a stadium?
Time in the military services? Plantation labor? Building infrastructure like roads or aqueducts for an empire? Growing tea in Assam & Bengal?
All of these have been tried throughout history to punish those fleeing famine, social or economic collapse, wars, drug lords, & genocide.
