      It took me time constructing a comment explaining which part I don’t understand for it to finally click.

      “Reform” is a political party or campaign in the UK. That gets you to understand the first word is a noun, not verb.

      I had a hard time seeing “plans” as anything other than a verb, but the trick here is to decide the second word in the headline is also a noun. If you don’t make that early decision, you can’t make sense of the rest.

      The plans of the Reform group are to scrap (get rid of) indefinite leave. Those plans might have been reversed or reverted for citizens, but they are to remain in place for migrants.

      Reform and Indefinite Leave to Remain are both well known in the UK, making it easy for residents.

        I know “Remain” and “Leave” were Brexit campaigns, but they aren’t capitalized here. That didn’t distract me for long.
