Those with insecure immigration status in the UK maybe subject to a condition known as ‘No Recourse to Public Funds’ and risk the prospect of facing destitution within the complex landscape of a discriminatory immigration system. This article examines ‘No Recourse to Public Funds’ and reports findings from ethnographic research.
