UK to pay tens of thousands of illegal migrants
to move to Rwanda
Last year, former Home Secretary Suella Braverman, who had a handle on the truth about what was going on in Britain, sent this message: “If you enter Britain illegally, you will be detained and swiftly removed.” Braverman was eventually fired by her government for “offensive” statements she made about the “political bias” of pro-Hamas protesters in London.
The UK has given up on any real efforts to end unvetted, illegal migration, and instead has opted simply to try to project the impression that something is being done to control the illegal invasion through the English Channel.
Less than a week and a half ago, illegal migrant crossings via the Channel hit the highest level this year, so the Sunak government came up with yet another outrageous plan: it revived the Boris Johnson-era proposal of throwing even more taxpayer money at the problem by paying illegals to move to Rwanda.
The economic migrants are being treated by Britain as if Britain had wronged them:
It will use the existing voluntary returns system and schemes that offer up to £3,000 in assistance for failed asylum seekers to return to their country of origin,
But how is Sunak planning to ensure that the economic migrants won’t end up making their way back into Britain even after being paid to leave?
Like a niche market industry!
Last month, the UK government pledged money to TikTok influencers to discourage illegals from coming into the country via English Channel.
Britain’s immigration problem is grave. The Home Office has already lost track of 17,000 asylum seekers.
The UK government has abandoned all policies of responsible immigration, and in doing so, has sacrificed its national security and imperiled its own sovereignty.
Tens of thousands of migrants with failed asylum applications will ‘be offered up to £3,000 to move to Rwanda
by Alesia Fiddler, Daily Mail, March 12, 2024:
Tens of thousands of migrants with failed asylum applications will be offered money to voluntarily move to Rwanda under new legislation proposed by the government.
A new agreement made between the UK and Rwandan government means that migrants could choose to be sent to Rwanda when they have no legal right to remain in the UK but cannot return to their home country.
Tens of thousands of people in the UK have had their asylum application rejected and the arrangement would be open to them meaning thousands of migrants could be removed…
Survivors say at least 60 migrants died in
Mediterranean shipwreck on way to Europe
At least 60 people died on a migrant boat that lost power as it tried to reach Europe from Libya, an aid group said Thursday, citing accounts from those rescued.
Issued on:
Survivors report that at least 60 people died en route, including women and at least one child," said Marseille-based SOS Mediterranee.
The group's Ocean Viking rescue ship is currently heading for port, carrying 224 people rescued from different boats.
Among them are 25 from a boat that survivors said had set off from Zawiya, Libya on March 8 -- only for its motor to give out three days later.
UN body the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said it was "deeply troubled by news of a shipwreck in the Central Mediterranean".
Passengers reported drifting without food or water for several days, said SOS Mediterranee.
It was not immediately clear how those who died were said to have lost their lives. AFP was not in an immediate position to confirm the toll.
Ocean Viking also has aboard 113 people recovered on Wednesday night and a further 88 rescued on Thursday from "an overloaded inflatable craft".
It has been directed to Ancona on Italy's eastern coast, which SOS Mediterrannee said was 1,450 kilometres (900 miles) from its current position.
The aid group said it had asked Italian authorities for "somewhere closer to put ashore".
SOS Mediterranee has rescued more than 39,000 people in the Mediterranean since 2016 -- most of them on the Central Mediterranean route, the world's most dangerous migrant passage.
Last year, 3,105 migrants died or were reported missing attempting to cross the Mediterranean to Europe, according to IOM figures.
The count has reached 278 so far this year.
