Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced plans to establish return hubs in third countries for failed asylum seekers, amidst growing pressure to manage UK migration. Dismissing the Conservative Rwanda deportation scheme as a gimmick, Starmer aims for a systematic approach in addressing the increase in illegal crossings via small boats. During his visit to Albania, he mentioned ongoing discussions with various nations about this initiative. Despite recognizing that this measure may not resolve the issue entirely, he emphasized its potential role in combating migrant smuggling gangs.
