republique,
Let me make myself clear.
This is not supposition; these things are already happening.
For my part, the permanency of ILR is not on the witness stand - only what it signifies to external agencies. Sadly not all of us here will have your gargantuan powers of reasoning.
My point remains that those who have control over the everyday lives of other people ie landlords, employers, banks may not all understand the complexities of ILR.
Moreover if people are being pushed towards British citizenship then ILR will become at worst seen as a transitory status, and at best part of a two tier system.
The introduction of PBS will most certainly result in difficulties unless the Home Office provide greater clarification to employers about who has the right to work, inlcuding those with ILR.
This is a forum for sharing information, and for clarifying issues and concerns. Accusing others of attempting to create panic for raising theirs is pointless and repressive.
As for these things already happening, many things are happening and like many things you have to deal with it as it comes. It is not at some record level that I would call it a phenomena of some sort.
And stop with this boo hoo stuff that we are sharing info, Yeah sure share info. No problem but do not belabor facts that do not exist. ILR is permanent. If employers are doing wrong, than the issue is employers are doing wrong or as you just mentionned the HO should do better advertising. NOT ILR is in jeopardy. It isn't so move on from that point.
You seem to be the only one here that's panicking because evidently you haven't understood a word I've written.
Guess I'll have to revise my opinion.
