What of the million pounds given to Rwanda ,do we get that back?

[rowanwitch]

How about the Falkland islands? Many of those coming are from countries that still have an agriculture based economy..... Argentina won't want them back if we try it.

I doubt it, Bobs. It's not Rwanda's fault that we can't get our act together.

The carousel keeps on turning, the lawyers keep on earning.

I guess the government needs to change the law. And withdraw from agreements that limit sensible actions from our government.

[Old_Geezer]

Perhaps we can resume sending undesirables to Australia.

spot on Old_Geezer

Back to Plan B. Internment camp on Gruinard it is then.

i think that this outcome was always the intention of the government... i think they were hoping that the policy would be defeated on lawful grounds so that they can then go into the next election with a campaign to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights

[bazwillrun]

that was to your first post...doubt Oz would want all these freeloaders, theyve got enough probs of their own with the same tring to flood in there...

"campaign to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights"

sooner the better, it shackles us at every turn...we can make own laws

It’s laughable that the ECHR themselves have sent people to Rwanda,Denmark, Israel and Norway have, but Britain can’t? We have sitting in the Supreme Court, a whole lot of leftist judges who must be making a pile representing illegals , this isn’t a government fault, it’s the fault of the judiciary of this country

already working i see

“The court's concern is only whether the policy complies with the law as laid down by Parliament."

Does anyone know what the letter of the law says? If it mentions the ECHR as sole grounds then blame the ECHR. Otherwise blame the law.
The decision was only a majority one so no doubt this is not the end of it.

I think the parliamentary law involved was the human rights act

[ichkeria]

"Parliament" means the UK parliament. So it depends what the UK law says

[Hymie]

Oh dear, this is going to upset the racists & bigots.

[Bobbisox1]

I assume by your post Hymie that you would like to take a few Albanians in, feed them,clothe them, get them enrolled in your GP practice and Dentist etc?

[Old_Geezer]

It'll upset the sane and the patriots too.

Sky suggests it'll go to the Supreme Court, not that I know of such things.

I doubt the PM will want to go into a GE having not already left the ECHR. Not unless he's determined to lose by a landslide.

[Hymie]

Sunak has already given up on ditching the ECHR (keep up with my AB posts).

[Old_Geezer]

Politicians are known to U turn. Keep up with the politics.
