Unelected bureaucrat David Cameron explains how we need the Rwanda plan because of Brexit 🤦‍♂️ Anushka Asthana, "Hand on heart. If this had come up when you were PM, would you have gone with this Rwanda policy?" David Cameron, "We had a situation where you could return people directly... to France.. People land on a beach in Kent, you take them straight back to France.. You therefore break the model of the people smugglers" Anushka Asthana, "Shouldn't you be trying to get that?" David Cameron, "That's not available at the moment" Anushka Asthana, "Because of Brexit?" David Cameron, "(Yes) Because of the situation we are in (having left the EU)" The UK has participated in the Dublin process since it was inaugurated in 1990. When the UK left the EU, the UK left the Dublin agreement and we no longer have the automatic right to return asylum seekers back to France. So Brexit was to take back control from unelected bureaucrats, and here we have David Cameron an unelected bureaucrat in charge of our foreign policy. And Brexit was about taking control of our borders and asylum seekers, and we've lost the ability to return asylum seekers to France, and instead have to spend over £1,000,000 to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, in a 1 in 1 out policy i.e. for every asylum seeker we send to Rwanda, they send us one of their asylum seekers, so we don't have fewer asylum seekers, we're just shuffling asylum seekers around. Hundreds of millions for a PR campaign to appease racists while there is a cost of living crisis in the UK and millions of Brits living in poverty. Disgraceful.show more

Oh @David_Cameron how can you bear yourself? You who casually allowed such epic damage to be done to our country. You who waltzed back in when you were bored to Lord it over us as Foreign Secretary. You who know how rancid that Rwanda plan is. The guilt must be overwhelming.

So we had Brexit in order to bin humanity & break international law.

It all goes back to Scameron and his inept handling of the r wing of the Tory party and his call for a referendum. So much of our troubles are at his door, but he has been given a free pass by the pliant media, and we now have him cos playing unelected Foreign secretary. A 🤡

But... but... surely this came out in the substantial, detailed, "Consequences of Brexit" document we could all see before we voted, yes? No, wait. There was no document. There was no analysis. Scotland got a 600-page analysis before ScotRef. We got the back of a cigar packet.

Keir Starmer crucifies Rishi Sunak over the Rwanda Scheme at #PMQs Did you know, if it did pass, we would only be able to send 100 asylum seekers to Rwanda? There are 75,492 asylum seekers in the UK. We are paying Rwanda over £150 million to take 100 asylum seekers. And the agreement also means we take up to 100 asylum seekers from Rwanda. So we aren't shifting the problem away, we're moving asylum seekers around like a game, all the while to appease people who want the UK to crackdown on asylum seekers, while keeping the total number of asylum seekers in the UK the same. If you think the Rwanda sceheme is fixing the asylum seeking system or backlog? Think again. The government thinks you're stupid. And if you believe their dog whistling, I suspect you probably are.

What would you want to happen to you if this country was an unliveable basketcase -audience claps- and that is your answer" "France takes 3x more asylum seekers than we do. Germany takes 4x as many. 17 European countries take more asylum seekers per head than we do" "How do we deter people coming here? Spend the Rwanda money on 6,000 case workers" "What would be a deterrent? 25% are not genuine asylum seekers. If we had a government that was competent enough to deal with the backlog, and then remove the people who are not asylum seekers, that would be a deterrent" "The Rwanda plan is a waste of time. A waste of your money that could be spent on the NHS" "They're playing politics with the lives of the most desperate people on the planet" "What 0.2% of all asylum seekers will go to Rwanda. Is that really a deterrent?" "Either Rwanda is a safe place, in which case it will not be a deterrent. Or it is an unsafe place and no decent government would ever send anyone there"
