Ally Miller<p>In an NHS ward I saw how Britain relies on immigrants.

Yvan<p>Heh, latest in the UK <a href="https://toot.ale.gd/tags/eVisa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eVisa</span></a> situation - they're basically telling people to get a share-code from the eVisa system when entering the UK "just in case". So there's now a new generic "prove my immigration status" share-code option.</p><p>The checker gets to select one of these reasons they're checking a share-code:</p><p>* a driving licence<br>* a student loan<br>* education or training<br>* a global or european health insurance card<br>* personal finance (including bank and building society accounts, loans, credit cards and mortgages)<br>* homelessness assistance or council housing<br>* another reason</p><p>I don't know if all these things needed immigration status checks before, I didn't have to do anything to prove immigration status for any of my last few bank accounts or driving licence renewal, and Kat didn't need to for her learner permit.</p><p>So I assume the <a href="https://toot.ale.gd/tags/HostileEnvironment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HostileEnvironment</span></a> is being expanded.</p><p>Also, homeless people who cannot prove their right to be in the UK won't be able to get "assistance"?</p>
