New migrant policy 'unthinkably heinous' says AntiRacismDay by LeahMahon_
HUMAN RIGHTS activists have slammed Rishi Sunak’s “heinous and wreckless” policy to stop migrants arriving on small boats from claiming asylum in the UK.
The government wants to enact its policy of sending asylum seekers to Rwanda after the “inhumane” policy was drafted under the former Home Secretary Priti Patel. However, no refugees have actually been sent to restart their lives in the African country after facing backlash from human rights groups and the courts.
“It is wholly about the demonisation and scapegoating of refugees. It is about telling us – during a cost of living crisis and when the government faces growing challenges from hundreds of thousands of workers striking – that the problem is refugees arriving by small boat,” he said. Clare Moseley, CEO of refugee rights charity Care4Calais, said: “If Sunak wants to stop small boats he would give safe passage to refugees in Calais. Instead he is persecuting victims of war, torture and human rights abuses while stoking devision in our communities with the use of inflammatory rhetoric.”
