Come here and we’ll send you to Rwanda.
That’s the message coming out of the United Kingdom for asylum seekers and migrants trying to reach it illegally .
Most of those supposed to be deported were able to avoid the first flight to Kigali through individual legal challenges.
A request to halt the flight was rejected by the UK’s Court of Appeal.
Will this policy stop refugees reaching Britain?
