Well well well. They've tried to keep the revelations secret because they thought it could harm international relations with Rwanda. Yes, of course they did, nothing to do with a very controversial policy at all.

That's clearly a desperate appeal to the base that they are doing 'something' no matter what. As far as reality on the ground is concerned it makes no difference. They are obviously hoping that the message will get back "Don't come here you're not welcome" as if we've welcomed them with open arms so far. It hasn't before and it won't this time. No matter how they are treated when they get here, there is no actual way of stopping them trying to cross the Channel.

I don't think there was ever much doubt it would be declared legal, even if it hadn't then with an 80+ majority and considerable public support then I don't doubt that legislation would be passed to make it legal. Any appeal against this is going to be a delaying tactic. A much more valid question is whether or not this is a pointless boondoggle that will achieve naff all beside squandering the odd hundred million quid. My money is on yes, I will be genuinely surprised if a year from now if the number of people sent to Rwanda is more than single figures or indeed any figure besides 0.

But those eight people will just get put back in the queue for whenever this plane leaves. Braverman will 'look again' and come to the same decision. This government and the systems it has run into the ground are a shambles. I would be surprised if this ever happens and if it does I don't see this policy lasting. The whole thing is a cack handed shit show. How is it even meant to stop people smugglers? They won't care what happens to people they cast off into the channel, obviously. If people think this is a good scheme, as the government has to spin it (they can't go around saying that they also think rwanda is unsafe), then they are encouraging people to come here, and thus encouraging the traffickers. There is no part of this stupid plan that isn't transparently ridicoulous
