The Supreme Court has ruled the Rwanda deportations are illegal

I fear they aren’t up to it Whitewave. I’m relieved about the Judgement but irritated SB Rishi, their lawyers and advisors ever considered it legal never mind ethical

Shades of Brexit😄😄

Lawyers and experts tell the government that it will never work

Government ignores it and it blows up in their face.

Of course dealing with the claims is the way forward and perhaps now their hands will be forced - or perhaps they aren’t up to it.

So the next thing will be the government wanting to take us out of the ECHR. God help us all if that happens. First they came for refugees and then they came for all of us….

How about processing claims more quickly?

Would it be unreasonable to consider whether Plan B (Plan C or whatever) would actually be achievable?

I listened to the Judgement. It was detailed and as the evidence was summarised and reviewed it became clear it would rule the proposal to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda was unlawful.

It’s shocking that Braverman and her advisors didn’t reach that conclusion and crack in in finding ways to speed up applications and return young men to Eastern Europe where they don’t face war or death because they’re gay/support the wrong side

The decision was pretty damning. It goes so far as to say that any future Home Secretary cannot simply take a potential country of transportation assurances if safety fir the transportees, they have to take all sorts of other evidence into consideration.

One has to seriously question the governments judgement.

It is indeed untenable. The result of a challenge to the government’s plan to house up to 1700 male asylum seekers in a disused air base in rural Essex is currently awaited.

The SC said that in principle sending asylum seekers to a safe third country is not unlawful, they simply didn’t consider that Rwanda fitted the bill, so maybe a deal will be done with another country.

Let’s hope that the Government has a Plan B, as the current situation is untenable.

It is not fair on the refugees/migrants, it is not fair on the communities who have a sudden influx of young men (with nothing to occupy them) nor is it sustainable for the public purse.
