the UK government is building a new policy designed to divert potential asylum seekers to Rwanda. Yeah, I mean, you have to read this story because I really can't believe it's it's actually real. It sounds like a fake news story by Russian hackers or or headline from the onion. But nope no, it's real. Apparently nothing against Rwanda, which by most accounts seems to have come a long way from, you know, being notorious for the genocide of the nineties to become one of the safer countries in East Africa. But fundamentally, it just seems cruel to me that someone would embark on a difficult and perilous journey to seek refuge in the U. K. Only to be exported to an offshore facility temporarily or possibly permanently. You know, without getting into the legal implications which the United Nations has already called into question under international law, blah blah. I mean, I realized how convenient this would be for the administration, but there was something just inherently inhumane about it, isn't there? Imagine someone fled the conflict in Ukraine across europe, navigated the financial and bureaucratic obstacles, gained entry to Britain only then to be told you and your family are being shipped off to East Africa. I mean, I just can't wrap my head around the country with the sixth largest economy in the world and less than 1% of the population and we feel like we need to send a few 1000 desperate people seeking help to Rwanda. I guess this is what we meant when we took back control of our borders. Honestly, it's just embarrassing
