A Polish couple who have lived in the UK for nearly 80 years say new post-Brexit border rules prevent them from returning home. Maria and Czeslaw Krupa arrived in Britain in 1947 and 1948 as dependents of displaced Polish service members following the Second World War, and they say they were welcomed at the time as refugees. They report that in May, while visiting Poland, they were told that they do not have post-Brexit rights that would allow their return to their home in Bury. According to their account, the couple had not previously faced immigration barriers in the UK, but they were then informed that they needed specific post-Brexit paperwork to travel back. They describe the situation as a major shock and say they became stuck in Kraków as they try to resolve the problem. The reports highlight the couple’s long residence in the UK and their claim that the rules they encounter now differ from the status they were granted after the war.
