Brilliant idea!
What do we think, Freepers?
Well I’m thinking that would be a highly effective deterrent to illegally immigrate to the UK.
I’m not sure whether it’s good or bad for Rwanda. It might be an influx of new talent that doesn’t exist in Rwanda at present. Or it might be an influx of illegal trouble makers. It could also mean an influx of muslims to Rwanda, which would be bad.
“questions remain about the legality of the scheme.”
Brits use “scheme” as we would use “plan”.

U.S.-Rwanda Relations
The U.S. established diplomatic relations with Rwanda in 1962, following its independence from a Belgian-administered trusteeship. From 1990 to 1994, the country experienced civil war and genocide. The U.S. seeks to help Rwanda meet the needs of its population, including increased social cohesion in a peaceful, democratic, and inclusive Rwanda that provides good governance and an enabling environment for private sector-led growth. The U.S. supports Rwandan efforts to increase democratic participation, enhance respect for civil and political rights, build capacity of its peacekeeping forces, grow its economy, and improve the quality and outcomes of health care and basic education. Rwanda is one of the world’s poorest countries, but it has made progress in developing national and local government institutions, economic development, maintaining security, promoting reconciliation, achieving Millennium Development Goals, and strengthening the justice system.
So it sounds like Britain will be paying Rwanda to take them.
So that’s a plus for Rwanda.
What happens if they don’t pass the asylum process in Rwanda?
So from the Article Boris says that the influx could be up to 1000 people a day soon. But 3/4’s of the people are granted asylum in the UK. So that’s 356,000 people * 25% = 89,000 people.
Of course the plan could reduce the numbers of arrivals. And Britain may lower the number accepted into the UK.
Rwanda has a population of $12.3 million, so an extra 89,000 peopl is not going to change the demographics too much.
What if the illegal came from Rwanda?
Poor Britain. They should have kept the island for 99% British people. Too late now.
Rwanda ... isn’t that next door to Wakanda?
A few boat loads and word would get around quickly. This is exactly how to stop the flood of illegals trying to crash your borders. Just send them all to somewhere inhospitable. They would quickly get the message. Nobody has the guts to do it. Here is hoping Britain does, as it is almost too late for Britain already as it is.
Questioning the legality of rehoming illegal alients. Does anybody else see the irony here. Illegal aliens deserve to receive illegal treatment.
I think Venezuela would be appropriate for our relocation country.
Or Washington DC...
Great idea. You paying attention Abbott?
ALL illegal alien men and women should be deported to Antarctica to fend for themselves.
The children can be placed in foster care until they are adults and then can be sent to the south pole to be with their parents. /spit
How much is a plane ticket to Paraguay?
Oh, good. They could use another ethnic civil war, no doubt. UN would profit again.
Over half the people of Rwanda are Protestant Christian, the largest sect of which there is Anglicanism. Which means it is hilarious when the Archbishop of Canterbury also objects to them being sent there.
Must be because African Anglicans are very morally conservative, and by sheer numbers they dominate the Anglican communion, including the Church of England and the Episcopalians of North America.
Otherwise, Rwanda is quite underpopulated. About 13m people over 10,000 square miles.
