Very disappointed to hear the high court #Rwanda judgement. We must keep on highlighting the gross unfairness of this approach. Not everything legal is moral. The human struggle has always been to make the immoral illegal. That can never achieve via silence.

Also why would deportation to #Rwanda deter the smugglers? This widely promoted logic defeats me. Smugglers take money from very desperate people who may not necessarily have all the facts, and don’t give a monkey’s whether these people end up in the UK, Rwanda or Mars!

@nisreen

it is throwing meat to their racist base and a nice segue into demolishing human rights for the rest of us.

the rich got their tax haven and can build their charter cities and free-ports leaving the public without a social and health safety net, unable to own property and living life as a service.
