Let's be clear. The people the UK is planning to deport to Rwanda are NOT "unsuccessful asylum seekers" or "illegal immigrants." They come from countries like Afghanistan, Eritrea & Syria, & if they were allowed to claim asylum, would in most cases be granted it.
From the UK's right-wing press: telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/…
UK. Even if refugees do not physically resist deportation to Rwanda, you can guarantee that very heavy-handed methods will be used to subdue them during the 9-hour flight to Kigali:
Exactly. A good example of the way that insistence on a long-term solution to a refugee situation (i.e. the Palestinian right of return) contradicts the immediate need for protection and the supposedly "universal and non-negotiable right to seek asylum" (UNHCR's own words)..

'The UK is currently acting as an international freeloader in refugee matters, expecting other countries to process people’s asylum claims when it flat out refuses to do so itself' @AmnestyUK & @AmnestyIreland chief executives amn.st/6016jEXwg
Amnesty International says "this EU Pact on Migration and Asylum will set back European asylum law for decades to come, lead to greater suffering, and put more people at risk of human rights violations at every step of their journeys." Is IOM listening? amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

"All individuals, apart from unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, who have arrived in the UK through dangerous, illegal & unnecessary methods since 1.1.22 & whose cases are considered suitable for safe third country inadmissibility, will be considered for relocation to Rwanda."

🟩 We are launching a new bulletin on #EU border externalisation 🟩 Together with @MigControl & funded by @BROT_furdiewelt, @Misereor, @nothilfe and @ProAsyl, this bi-monthly bulletin aims to make the EU’s #externalisation policies, plans & practices public 🧵👀
A very useful thread!
IOM is offering to support the implementation of an EU Pact that Human Rights Watch has described as a "disaster for migrants and asylum seekers." hrw.org/news/2023/12/2…
EU leaders are considering declaring certain parts of Syria as safe for refugees to return to. Ahead of @vonderleyen's visit to Lebanon this week, it must be made crystal clear: Syria is categorically unsafe.
British exceptionalism. And it stinks.
The UN should really be saying something about this!

I see Twitter has found a way to force ads on me and not let me block them. Another nail in the coffin - and any company that takes advantage of it (I’m looking at you, Temu) will *never* get my custom.
Palestinians in Gaza: do they have a right to seek asylum elsewhere? – by Dr. Jeff Crisp against-inhumanity.org/2024/04/16/pal…
@JFCrisp Remember Jimmy Mubenga 4frontproject.org/jimmy-mubenga#….
And additionally an example of priorities made by others not those in immediate need. If a managed refugee reception outside Gaza with right of return was needed I would not have over £1 million worth of requests to set up GFM Pages in my inbox.
Exactly. A good example of the way that insistence on a long-term solution to a refugee situation (i.e. the Palestinian right of return) contradicts the immediate need for protection and the supposedly "universal and non-negotiable right to seek asylum" (UNHCR's own words)..
@JFCrisp It is incredible to see UN officials playing macro level politics with people's lives
@JanezLenarcic @IOMchief @eu_echo @UNmigration @IOMatEU @EUatUN @EU_UNGeneva In spite of the absolute hollowness of your and IOM's promise, and IOM's unclear mandate, it is noteworthy that unlike UNHCR you do mention persecution. @JFCrisp
@JFCrisp Interestingly, the updated inadmissibility guidance contradicts that as it also says families with children won’t considered for transfer to Rwanda
@SuellaBraverman 'work together' - yes, which does not mean every country tries to force all their migrants out into other countries, because that's just a merry-go-round. It means everyone taking their share and not demonising every migrant, something alien to you.
What eejits you are. Retweeting Bunter, a lying charlatan who used our dosh to take a pole dancer on a mayoral jolly (bunged her failed bizness too), spaffed millions on a garden bridge & water cannons that were never used, went on to trash Britain. #VOTEKHAN #JAILJOHNSONd

Haven't seen any polling but my sense is the Tories have miscalculated the value of a dividing line on benefits for people with mental illnesses. Plenty of middle class professionals with depression/anxiety who are also being insulted with "pull your socks up" BS.
Disabled people having vouchers instead of cash benefits buys into the idea we are scroungers who can’t be trusted not to spend the cash on fags and booze. When the Tories get their arse handed to them at the election, I’m spending my PIP on fucking champagne.

@JFCrisp Shame on the UK, and it's a sick decision that has ever been made.
@ZoeJardiniere 1. He's standing down 2. A Tory Doctor/MP telling middle England don't vote for us we're destroying the health service a couple of days before an election is a massive win. 3. A devastating result in that election could bring this gov to an early end = Rwanda fiasco over.
Some MPs are so bright and intelligent.
I am pleased to see that the Rwanda plan is already having an effect.
@JFCrisp I'm trying to understand this in the context of EU -Egyptian deal while recalling how the 🇪🇺 commission clamped down on shady travel agents who were profiting by allowing refugees to travel to the Belarus border. Will Palestinian be given refugee protection on the other side?
@JFCrisp While I agree with the principle of what you are saying, I am grateful to have a chance to help save one family. Amidst the chaos and hell that is going on in Gaza, with our govts more interested in stopping protests than helping Palestinians, a life saved is a victory.
