What the petition asks

Urgently create an ICE-style task force to locate the missing asylum seekers lost by the Home Office. For public safety, national security, and system integrity, we demand immediate action to track, verify, and resolve these cases.
We want this task force because we think losing track of asylum seekers could put public safety and national security at risk. We think it undermines trust in the immigration system and prevents proper vetting. We think the UK needs a fair, firm, and accountable process to protect its people and uphold the law.
We think losing track of this many people could put lives at risk and weaken our borders. We believe the UK deserves safety, order, and a system that works for everyone—not fear and failure.
