Of course we need a better system for dealing with asylum seekers, which is precisely why the Rwanda plan needs to be dropped right now and the money spent on a proper system with better ways of accessing our system that doesn’t involving risking life and limb on the Channel in a rubber dinghy.
Strongly agree. Our own citizens have restrictions to adhere to when attending ticketed events, concerts, gatherings etc. Bags are routinely checked at some events so I should think it essential when people are illegally entering a country and possibly be carrying bombs or lethal weapons.If they entered without proper documentation it’s only right items be confiscated in the interest of national security, in other countries they’d be detained and removed to holding centres, not driven to hotels in community settings.
Migrants who crossed Channel in boats claim damages for 'unlawful' treatment
Asylum seekers have made High Court claims against the Home Office after complaining about searches and phone seizures on arrival in Englandwww.standard.co.uk
That’s everyday life in NIAsked whether he would ever consider sending asylum seekers abroad, the Labour leader said he was open to the idea of offshore processing.
“The Rwanda scheme…is a straight deportation scheme in relation to people who have already arrived”, he told reporters. “Other countries around the world do have schemes where they divert people away for processing elsewhere. That’s a different kind of scheme and I’ll look at any scheme that might work."
Also I have been to "ticketed events, concerts gatherings etc." where "bags are routinely checked" but I don't think that these has ever involved being strip searched and having my mobile phone and SIM card confiscated as part of a blanket policy that the Home Secretary has already admitted is illegal.
Has the Home Secretary admitted that is illegal too?That’s everyday life in NIask anyone what stop n search powers mean, some people up to 40 times a day…All in the name of security, of course!
Like clockwork ...Why didn’t he apply through the legal routes!
They get to break every rule here…Valid question!Has the Home Secretary admitted that is illegal too?
Like clockwork ...
Separately, do you genuinely believe we have a government that cares about the homeless or veterans? Because before this became a "crisis" they weren't exactly being offered support on a platter.The failed asylum system is causing so many deaths for so many veterans and homeless people. They deserve better.
How will they force deportation?Throwing millions of £ at Rwanda to improve its asylum processing system but the UK can't even reach its own target
