Can those who so vehemently oppose it please articulate what is so heinous with processing asylum seekers' claims in Rwanda (or I suspect any other country)? As I for one don't get the hostility for it. Ta in advance and morning.
People escaping a country hit by war crimes, or persecuted for being gay in Russia, etc... are classified as vulnerable, as they often have PTSD and hence suffer from suicidal thoughts etc and easy to exploit. The courts noted Rowander has a well evidenced record of exploitation. It's not a crime to escape abuse, but it is sending them to Rowander as it breaks the Equalities & Disabilities Act 2010 (among many others). Do you want a government that breaks their own laws ? Our own Met Police had the worst track record on acknowledging they were breaking that Act. Immigrants' assumed "crime" doesn't warrant a death sentence, by proxy.
Our government subcontracts enough shame and blame as it is, whilst they focus on their expenses, "partygate" and building their Celebrity get me out of here, status. They need to start recognising their own laws.

It is not a safe country.
...
And if processing in a foreign country is a good idea - why don't the government set up the already suggested processing in France?
Because it's not cruel enough, that's why.
