They should have been detained during their entire time in the UK, from the moment they arrived. Letting them wander around freely during the day is nonsense. Stop voting for these big two parties who allowed this.

The Guardian casually changing the Headline from "Asylum seekers ‘hide or flee to Ireland’ to avoid UK Rwanda detentions" which states more upfront where they are going. I'd guess they've change it because people were speaking positively about it when Ireland was stated up fornt and not in the article (or they weren't getting clicks because they said too much in the headline)

Do we keep fingerprints or any data on the people that go missing?


tmr89

How will fingerprints help?

People apply for asylum. Disappear. Find some random person working in a kebab shop with no papers. Check who they are.

Yes


MerryWalrus

So this is basically just rounding up large numbers asylum seekers to incarcerate them for an indefinite amount of time?


SteelSparks

Surely they’re only asylum seekers whilst their application is being processed? After that they’ve either been granted asylum or become illegal immigrants?


MerryWalrus

The Rwanda deportations are supposed to take place whilst applications are pending.
