Rwanda Flights 'Only Way To Slash Perma-Backlog Of 55,000 Asylum Seekers'

A scathing report by the Institute for Public Policy Research reveals up to 55,000 migrants are stuck in a "perma-backlog' because the Government cannot deport them or process their claims.

Former Immigration Minister Kevin Foster told the Daily Express: "This issue lies at the heart of the challenge in dealing with illegal migration, how you deal with those from nations where we cannot return them due to either the refusal of their Government to agree to enforced returns or the situation in the country.

"This is where Rwanda makes the difference... where we cannot return them to their home country." Senior backbench MP David Jones added: "Nothing will deter potential illegal migrants more than the spectacle of flights taking off."
