"not a British citizen" sounds like it includes people with indefinite leave to remain/any level of settled status. Meaning people who have lived here a long time, and were not here illegally at any point. I personally don't care about the last point, and I think we should support refugees too, but that's where the negative connotations will come from. But regardless: it sounds like this will include people who could be citizens (perhaps if it didn't cost 1.7k).

So really, does this say anything?
