Rwanda is a no go

Yeah, except Albania was explicitly clear that this was for Italy only on the basis of their shared history and, in any case, it is completely different to the Rwanda policy because those with successful claims will be immediately granted asylum in Italy (i.e., it is offshore processing only, similar to Australia). This is kind of a problem when 90%+ of claims succeed. The Rwanda policy allowed for asylum claims to Rwanda, not the UK. -
There is another choice - maybe accept that the harebrained idea should be dropped. They're happy to drop sensible ideas like HS2, building houses, building hospitals, levelling up, being the party of law and order, being the party of family values, etc etc, so why not this one?…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Can't keep sweeping them under the carpet, or renting a big boat off a friend of the government for millions a year. Eventually we have to process all asylum seekers, even the 0.0000000000001% that aren't bogus (or whatever the approved figure is)…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

That was my first thought as well. The reasoning is sound but I think everyone wondered if Rwanda of all places was really a good choice.Originally posted by vetran View Post'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

Agree we should lock them up and process them quickly Albania's criminal population is decimated and Pakistans LGBT fathers are all over here.Comment

My take on going with Rwanda was that it would act as a deterrent. If a couple of plane-loads had actually gotten there and the people processed, it would (hopefully) send the signal that illegal immigration to the UK was not a goer.Originally posted by northernladuk View Post

However, the greatest immigration issue is actually legal immigration but, hey ho.Comment

Legal immigration needs a decent analysis.
