And since all we've tried prior has not stopped them, do tell what this easier solution is. I'm sure parliament would like to be informed.

[Old_Geezer]

The chances of any migrant being removed is absolutely minimal because it ain't running yet. Some virtue signalling fools are putting obstacles in the way. That needs sorting first. Yes there is nothing to prevent the illegals repeating the process of paying a fortune to return and then getting sent to Rwanda again; but being removed once is likely to sap enthusiasm for that.

> Couldn't we make our benefits and our healthcare slower to access, bringing them into line with other countries?
>> No, because the handwringers (including many in the so-called Tory Party) won’t hear of it.
>> Don’t get me wrong, the Rwanda plan is a farce. If (a very big “if”) any are sent there the numbers will barely scratch the surface of the problem.

Again, it doesn't stack up. The handwringers can't be persuaded on making access to healthcare and benefits as difficult as on the continent, but the Rwanda scheme can be got past the same handwringers - as if it was somehow less onerous?

And then the Rwanda scheme is a farce, so what's actually being done is ... nothing???

Do the handwringers know that the Rwanda scheme is a farce so, as long as it remains a farce, they pay lip service to it?

Is this what politics has become?

Old Geezer,
The Government have allocated enough money to send about 70 migrants to Rwanda. To send all nearly 29,000 of them will cost £46 Billion!!

[ToraToraTora]

Gromit: 13:11, don't talk rot gromit, you are extrapolating one off set up costs.

[Gromit]

No I am not.
Australia has a real world offshoring scheme that has run for a number of years. Their costs per migrant are documented (unlike ours which have not been divulged).

We will not get economy of scale because Rwanda only has 200 places. The initial costs are not one off set up costs, they are the costs ongoing.

[Gromit]

We shall see.
We have given Rwanda £120 million. Let’s see how many they take.

i wonder if all the handwringers have vested interests in thwarting migrant deportations, we know law firms are cash cows, what of the others..is there milk lake of human kindness that deep.

[ToraToraTora]

just abolish legal aid for migrant cases then, see how interested the parasites are. .....Hang on, that's genius!

This applies to many other things too, including the illegal immigrant problem. See my post above at 11:21 - the government is giving millions to charities like Migrant Help, a lot of people are getting very rich and don't want it to ever stop.

Just imagine the Home Office paying a £1,000 mooring fee for a seized boat that 'imported a number of migrants into Rye Harbour'.
Who charged that sum? - we should be told.

Yes.

"
just to be clear, the immigrants are diverting from the Uk to the land of Gness and Dave.... "

Then straight over here using the CTA.

From day one we shoulda sunk their boats as soon as they left France, big mistake not to.
