    Australia did the same thing and it worked, simply sending them back.

            Says the one who wants to watch children drown in the sea because they came in unregulated boats.

                You literally want people to have a reason to get into flimsy boats with their children and drown in the English channel.

          Australia placed asylum seekers in an island detention centres with inhumane conditions. Is that what you want to hear? To validate your opinion and agreement to the Rwanda bill? The UK Supreme Court ruled that Rwanda is not even a safe place. Do you see Rwanda like the Australian detention centre because you are a piece of shit? Do you have any more sealioning questions to validate how much of a piece of shit you are who is no worse than smugglers abusing asylum seekers? The Rwanda bill is not even popular among the British when polled except for pieces of shit. Is that the answer you want to hear?

      This is true. Australia managed to completely stop small boat arrivals. However their deportation scheme was even more harsh than the UK/Rawanda proposals. From what I understand people who arrived by boat there were detained pretty much indefinitely on an island detention centre. I think they might have ended the policy because it was so brutal. Not sure that politicians would be able to do that here without a public outcry.

      Interestingly, Australia is consistently one of the most pro-immigration countries in the world, and has been for the past 10+ years. I read an article in the Economist that suggested people were more happy with immigration if they believed their borders were secure.

        I guess it makes sense if they have safe and legal routes, then there’s not much harm in punishing those who arrive illegally. The Rwanda policy does seem more humane than this, so that’s a good thing.
