UK PM pushes for Rwanda treaty to bypass asylum policy legal challenges: UK PM Rishi Sunak is determined to implement his controversial asylum policy with Rwanda, bypassing legal challenges through a new treaty, but faces opposition from critics and legal experts.
Rishi Sunak, the UK Prime Minister, is pushing for emergency legislation and a new treaty with Rwanda to implement his asylum policy despite it being ruled unlawful by the Supreme Court. Sunak aims to ensure that this policy is not further delayed by legal challenges in domestic courts. However, Helena Kennedy KC, a labor peer and lawyer, believes that the courts would not accept a new treaty with Rwanda as a solution. The asylum policy, which has been criticized as a gimmick by opposition parties, has cost the taxpayers £1,000,000, and its failure has left Sunak's government vulnerable. Despite the challenges, Sunak remains committed to stopping the boats and ending the merry-go-round of legal challenges.
