Sunak Survives Major Rebellion to Pass Rwanda Asylum Bill | Vantage with Palki Sharma
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has survived a major rebellion within his party. 60 Conservative Party MPs had threatened to reject the Rwanda Bill, saying it wasn't tough enough. But Sunak did not give into their demands, and the bill passed with only 11 Tory MPs, including former Home Secretary Suella Braverman, voting against it. The bill brings the UK one step closer to its goal of deporting refugees and asylum seekers to the African nation of Rwanda. Palki Sharma tells you more.

An intruder gets into your house through the window and suddenly you need a vote to ask him/her to leave, interesting times.People who have migrated to other countries but are not from war-affected areas should be allowed to return to their home countries and contribute to their development. On the other hand, those who have fled their nations due to ongoing wars should respect the laws of the host countries they have migrated to and not demand the same rights as the citizens of that country. They should focus on learning how to promote peace within their own nations and with their neighboring countries to prevent future wars and mass migration. It is crucial to return home and hold leaders accountable for development, especially in regions rich in resources like Africa and the Arab world.

That's the side affect of colonisation so deal with it.

What really needs to happen is that "The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (Article 14)" needs to be reviewed. Article 14 was established post-WW2, reflecting the period's need to address the rights of refugees and displaced persons. Current immigration challenges require a different approach and updated international laws.

I live here in the UK and it's a struggle honestly. Washrooms are much smaller, weather can be harsher and it's difficult to sustain yourself. People here struggle, pay rents and make calculated decisions based on daily expenditures. It's ludicrous to think of developed countries as havens of welfare benefits when there are literally homeless people here begging for change.

[@786Atlasworldwide-lb3om]

Many quoting this is a excellent move. Sunak and all his allies are planning to do this move for these reasons To use the people who try to illegally come into UK to fight their way to come into the UK. Let me explain-A group try to come into the UK they get stopped to then have to go to Rwanda. There they will be given option either fight in the wars that are happening or suffer. So then they may get tortured or forced to go into fighting as UK and allies needs fighters. It will reduce what it costs for tax payers this way and benefits the elite bullies. If the illegal immigrants fight a war for say 1-2years and stay alive they get granted asylum into UK. If they die then that’s not a worry for the bullies who planned this. There are people who think this is a excellent move, remember the UK and it’s allies will never do anything that doesn’t benefit them. At this current moment in time a war is beneficial which requires troops and no other troops than illegal immigrants is a win win situation as that doesn’t include any of the UK citizens or the citizens of their allies.
