STOP THE BOATS

I am both in favour and against the decision of the Court of Appeal to deport those who cross The English Channel in small boats to Rwanda. 

As posted before, I think that those who do cross in small boats should have deportation.  But I also think that there should be a system in place so that asylum seekers can have applications processed abroad in third countries, just like we did with refugees fleeing Putins War in Ukraine. The system should be able to cope with the numbers quickly and fairly, just as it did with Ukrainian refugees.

It is insane that an Afghan Pilot has had to get here by a small boat because we have no decent safe and legal route for him to come here.  Many more who have helped the UK in Afghanistan are still trapped abroad and it is a crime to process them slowly with wilful inertia.
