Protesters demonstrate outside the Supreme Court against the Home Office's plan to relocate asylum seekers to Rwanda
A current detainee who is understood to have been given removal notice to Rwanda* said: “They tell me I must go to Rwanda. Believe me, if I thought Rwanda was a safe option I would have gone there. And if I thought I would be safe in my country I would go back there in an instant.” Action Against Detention and Deportation, a human rights coalition including All African Women’s Group and BARAC UK, are driving the protests around the country.
The coalition has said they are committed to ending the “inherently unjust practices” of detention and deportation, and stamping out the “hostile environment” aimed towards migrants. “Despite ongoing legal proceedings, the Home Office is reported to be planning another Rwanda flight. We stand with our migrant brothers and sisters and will not allow anyone to be deported under this brutal plan, which is rooted in Britain’s ongoing history of racism and colonialism.”
