Focus on Rwanda's safety is a distraction from the dangerous conditions for asylum seekers in the UK
Briefly

The UK government's new law to declare Rwanda safe for asylum seekers despite the Supreme Court ruling it unsafe is a dangerous legal workaround and threatens the wider legal and political system.
The UK Home Office knows Rwanda isn't safe for many but still grants refugee status to half of Rwandan asylum applicants each year, highlighting the hypocrisy in the new law declaration.
For decades, the UK has been forcibly sending asylum seekers to other countries, including potentially unsafe ones, showing a disregard for the safety of those seeking asylum.
Declaring Rwanda safe unilaterally ignores the dangers asylum seekers face in the UK, raising concerns about the legal and political consequences of such actions.
