Closed petition Create separate border control counters for non-UK citizens with residence cards

Closed on

We want the Home Office to provide separate immigration counters for non-UK citizens with UK residence cards, for people arriving to the UK. These should be separate from non-UK citizens who come in for purposes like tourism.

Non-UK citizens with residence cards live and pay taxes in the UK, and should therefore be provided services equivalent to UK citizens, and processed separately to tourists who come into UK. At the moment, non-UK citizens with residence card who go on frequent trips outside the UK end up spending hours waiting for immigration checks. We believe this is unfair.
