Boris Johnson's plan to send asylum seekers 4,000 miles to Rwanda is ILLEGAL, says UN: Refugee agency slams proposals as 'egregious breach of international law' and 'really unacceptable'
2022-04-17
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Wouldn't one way bus tickets from Libya to Rwanda be cheaper?
  • The government plans to give failed asylum seekers a one-way ticket to Rwanda

  • PM pledged to do 'whatever it takes' to push through his landmark scheme

  • He said 'tens of thousands' of Channel migrants would be sent 4,000 miles away

  • The government is now bracing itself for legal challenges against the proposal

  • And now, the UNHCR has hit out at the PM's plan, saying it 'strongly condemns outsourcing the primary responsibility to consider the refugee status'
