Hey OP, did you forget that UK is not a safe third country? Why are you surprised people haven’t been deported back there?
Again,..blame here rests on McEntee and O’Gorman. There’s no follow-through on returns.
She’ll avoid any difficult questions or accountability for it, and an inevitable protest outside a home will steer focus away from that issue and onto how dangerous the protests are on politicians and their families.
A shit show worsening with every day that passes with that leadership in charge.
High court determined UK not a safe third country so yeah no deportations
Maybe I am missing something here, but why not start with deporting people that are fully rejected rather than the current rejecting them and hoping they do it themselves? Would that not be a place to start, like actually showing people the door.
From the article:
The UK accepted it would take back just over 200 migrants under a 2020 agreement with the State – although none has been sent back.
The Government is appealing that judgment and planning to pass new laws which it says will clear the way to resume returns. However, the figures – as well as statements from UK prime minister Rishi Sunak – suggest that immediate return of migrants will be difficult.
For its part, Ireland agreed to accept seven asylum seekers under the deal out of the roughly 1,800 sought by Britain, with just a single person being returned. Both Britain and Ireland have refused hundreds of requests under the contentious deal at the centre of a diplomatic row between the two countries.
