If prime minister Rishi Sunak was severe about coping with refugees, why hasn’t he – and former prime ministers and residential secretaries – ensured a fast and truthful evaluation process for asylum seekers and refugees?
The truth so many are ready for his or her circumstances to be heard is a failure of presidency. These are human beings – they’re entitled to truthful therapy and making certain truthful therapy, and a authorized means to entry it, is hardly unreasonable.
It can be far cheaper than sending them to Rwanda, after which bringing most of them again, as most do win the proper to remain within the UK.
Demonising them for having no secure authorized path to get to the UK – after which additional blaming them for the federal government’s failure to quickly course of their claims – is inhuman. M Reader, London

Even in the event you’re daft sufficient to suppose the Rwanda plan had benefit, the Supreme Court’s choice means there’s little this authorities can do – aside from squander additional tens of millions on extra brainfarts.
The nation positive factors nothing from them crying into their hankies and complaining they’re the victims of made-up ‘enemies of the individuals’, fictitious ‘blobs’ and woke elites. Or an institution we’re meant to imagine they’re not really a part of.
I’m no fan of David Cameron’s, nor would I ever vote Tory, however the elevation of the erstwhile prime minister to international secretary is a masterstroke. Nixon was blessed with Henry Kissinger. Dare I say it, Cameron is the brand new Kissinger. Tony Ojolola, Old Kent Road
Surely the federal government can’t be severe about ditching the European Convention on Human Rights in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling that its Rwanda deportation scheme is illegal (Metro, Thu)?
