2012年，“不得诉诸公共资金”（NRPF）条件扩大到之前通过人权机制获得居住权和福利权的英国长期移民家庭。通过对政策、政治声明和媒体报道的仔细审查，我们证明了 NRPF 的延期过去是、现在仍然是有意的压制和惩罚性的，最恰当的理解是对消极种族化的后殖民主体实施强迫贫困和债务的政策。在阐述我们的论点的含义时，我们指出时间、贫困和债务，以及日常边境、拘留和驱逐出境，都是英国移民制度的核心技术。拒绝通过 NRPF 提供支持，有助于排除所谓的移民，同时使有条件的社会支持方法正常化。我们的文章揭示了为什么基于贫困而反对 NRPF 的道德论证失败了，并表明挑战福利边界需要对政策框架、意图和效果进行更系统的评估。
In 2012, the 'no recourse to public funds' (NRPF) condition was extended to long-standing migrant families in the UK who had previously achieved rights to residence and welfare through human rights mechanisms. Through close examination of policy, political statements, and media coverage, we make the case that the NRPF extension was - and continues to be - intentionally subjugating and punitive, most aptly understood as a policy of enforced destitution and debt imposed on negatively-racialised post-colonial subjects. In drawing out the implications of our argument, we point to time, destitution, and debt as core technologies of the UK's migration regime, alongside everyday bordering, detention, and deportability. Denying support through NRPF serves to exclude putatively included migrants while normalising conditional approaches to social support. Our article reveals why moral arguments against NRPF based on destitution fail and suggests that challenging welfare bordering requires a more systemic appraisal of policy frames, intentions and effects.
