Opposition politicians and refugee charities in Britain have condemned an agreement under which some people arriving in UK to seek asylum would be sent to the central African country to have the claims processed.
The Government said the system would reduce people’s smuggling and discourage people from trying to reach Britain in small boats.
The Refugee Council said it was appalled.
The leader of the Labor Party Keir Starmer said the scheme with Rwanda was unworkable and extortionate.
“The desperate announcement by Prime Minister who just want to distract from his own law breaking.
You know they’re unworkable, they’re extortionate, they’re going to cost the taxpayers billions of pounds.
And they just reflect the Prime Minister who’s got no grip, no answers to the questions that need answering, or no shame .”

海峡を渡ってきた亡命希望者は中央アフリカの国ルワンダに送って資格を調査して、（正当な亡命者と認められればルワンダで暮らせるという取り決めにルワンダと合意した。）
亡命が認められれば英国で暮らせるわけではないのだ。
なんで遠く離れたルワンダなんだろう。
