And outsourcing asylum seekers cannot be cheaper than housing them. Fack me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ultimately, we all know what the problem is.

Its racism.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yet they strike a deal with a black country?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
yes, of course. Why would racism stop them from doing that?

Also, Rwanda wasn't their first choice. They've had to settle for Rwanda after everyone else told them to fack off with their racist sheeeet.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Israel had a scheme from 2014 to 2017 when around 4,000 migrants were deported to Rwanda. Only nine remained and many others were smuggled, trafficked back to Europe.

According to the arrangement the:

"objective of this Arrangement is to create a mechanism for the relocation of asylum seekers whose claims are not being considered by the United Kingdom, to Rwanda, which will process their claims and settle or remove (as appropriate) individuals.

Ergo asylum seekers will not be relocated to the UK (even if they have a valid claim).

"migrants who make dangerous or illegal journeys, such as by small boat or hidden in lorries, have their asylum claim processed in Rwanda. Those whose claims are accepted will then be supported to build a new and prosperous life in one of the fastest-growing economies"

And as per existing policy it will be practically impossible to asylum seekers to gain access to legal counsel to challenge and get to the UK.

And anyone who is successful will be repatriated in Rwanda.

Utterly reprehensible.

As the origin of mankind and giver to the world of all sports, universal language, and good food, we Brits should stand firm. Civilised humanity began in Britain and then spread out around the world. You cannot just come crawling back millennia later because you didn't like where your ancestors went. We Brits don't come invading your countries when we get a bit cold or whatever, why are you trying to invade ours?

Although, I wouldn't be against lining up immigrants as they got off the boat and then pointing left or right based on how fit they are to work. The fit ones get sent off to do unpaid work in exchange for a cabin to sleep in and the ones deemed not fit for work are well, we shall see what has been done in the past and see if we can come to a solution. That's the Britain I would like to see and we are getting closer.

None of them ever think to bring gifts either. We can be persuaded, but they make little effort.

Maybe a Saturday night ITV show where they try and win a place in the UK via a series of entertaining rounds? Both mentally and physically. They need to prove that they are as smart and physically fit as the average Brit.

We need to make this profitable somehow.

I've been to France a few times, I don't understand what horrors they are so desperately running away from that require them to come to the UK.

The English language and culture in the UK is a big attraction as are the women who shave their armpits here!

Yeah spoken to a few and they were most looking forward to drinking 10 pints of carling, downing zambucca’s on Saturday nights, spewing up then fighting outside kebab shops at 3am.

Isnt it odd how using stereotypical typcasts Is fine when its the Brits, but offensive when done to anybody else
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its not true that using stereotypical typcasts is fine when its the Brits, but offensive when done to anybody else. And even if it was that's because history has an impact on modern life, even though it would need to be addressed as it wouldn't be fair.

They are being kept in a safe country until their claim is heard, its just not Britain.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it racism?

Could it be linked to the fact we just had a NI hike to cover our already bloated social welfare system?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Makes sense to implement an expensive and unsustainable model to deal with asylum seekers then.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know the cost implications
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Best to just leave your post at that bit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Because he's admitted he doesn't know what he is trying to argue about.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you cannot fathom the inhumanity of turning away asylum seekers, (the vast vast majority of who are fleeing war and persecution).

Then sending them to dentention camps 4,000 miles away in Rwanda, denying them their legal rights, preventing them from claiming asylum in the UK, there's not really much more to discuss.

I’ve not seen his comments, I finally gave in and filtered him, but I know the crap he spouts.

To clarify this is not about processing asylum claims so successful seekers can then return to the UK having been granted refugee status.

But deporting people to Rwanda where, if successful, they'll be expected to start/build a new future there whether they want to or not.

Why do migrants leave France for the UK?

In the few studies that exist, family ties have been identified as the main reason migrants wish to travel from France to the UK.

In a survey of 402 people at the former Calais "Jungle" camp, researchers from the International Health journal found only 12% wanted to remain in France, while 82% planned to go to England.

Of those that wanted to travel to England more than half (52%), said they already had a family member there.

"They have a connection to the UK, they speak some English, they have family, they have friends and people in their networks. They want to come and stay and rebuild their lives," says Enver Solomon, chief executive of the Refugee Council.
