Yes, but only if it is a safe place where individuals can live in freedom and have the chance to develop.

 @9NXM4P6answered…6 days6D

Yes if they do not want to be returned to their own country. So long as it’s the relocation is still a safe option and the cost of doing so is less than keeping them in the UK

 @9PB6DYCLabouranswered…25mins25m

Do what other countries do. But foreign workers are the most hard working and do the jobs English people don’t want to

 @9P9WSXCanswered…4hrs4H

Asylum seekers should be supported to find somewhere safe to stay whether inside or outside of the UK.

 @9P9FNS4SNPanswered…5hrs5H

Illegal immigrants should be returned to their country of origin or the last safe country they passed through.

 @9P9MDL4answered…8hrs8H

I don’t want them here but I also don’t think shipping them back and turning our backs on them is the right answer

 @9P9M5W8answered…8hrs8H

They should not be given everything free. Only basic human needs should be cared for and returned to country of origin if unsuccessful. Stop paying lawyers massive amounts to look after their case. Proof of who they are should be sought before being allowed to claim asylum. Many of these arrive without ID. and many young men claim to be children when they are not.

 @9P9KFFNanswered…9hrs9H

No, but the eu/world should come to some sort of arrangement so each country has a set amount of housing/jobs available

 @9P9D9VNanswered…12hrs12H

Back to the country where they came from or the last border to be crossed if they are in war conflicts

 @9P8Y2QCGreenanswered…22hrs22H

A complex subject and should be dealt with on a case by case basis. If a nation is keen to receive asylum seekers and is safe, then relocation could be justified, but relocation costs should be recovered from the recipient country.

 @9P8SW3Canswered…24hrs24H

A centralised approach is needed that fairly distributes asylum seekers across Europe (in a randomised way, proportional to the resources available).

 @9P8PFVJanswered…1 day1D

I think we should help asylum seekers into new countries working together to prevent them from being asylum seekers

 @9P8L2QDanswered…1 day1D

We simply cannot provide for everyone here in England, however we are all people and it is the right humanitarian thing to help provide an alternative safe place to go to and that is not Rwanda.

 @9P8KJPQanswered…1 day1D

Need to make sure that people whom are really I. Danger are helped and we should not be splitting families whom have been living in England and working and paying their taxes

 @9P8CRHCanswered…1 day1D

Should be sent to various safe countries and then evenly distributed once processed to a suitable country of choice where possible and fair

 @9P88ZQYfrom Prachuap Khiri Khan answered…1 day1D

Depends...are they criminal or just escaping a war that the UK are involved in to provide a better life for their children

 @9P82W24answered…1 day1D

They should be screened and those with criminal offences should be returned to their place of origin

 @9P7VY28answered…1 day1D

They should not be accepted into the UK and returned to the country they last came from (I.e. France) and France can return them to the country they came from etc etc. that may make other EU countries make more of an effort to stop them entering their country. I don’t think Rwanda is a good option.

 @9P7KX3Hanswered…2 days2D

Maybe put a limit we aren't able to take in everyone we have a maximum capacity for a life that works

 @9P78DH2answered…2 days2D

Those seeking asylum are by definition not "illegal". It is impossible to be an illegal asylum seeker.

 @9P6ZPNZanswered…2 days2D

do your own research. young men unaccompanied by families left behind? supported by incomes in uk... please? do research... don't listen to me!

 @9P6YPSQanswered…2 days2D

Rwanda is one option , or back to country they travelled into uk from . In mean time they should work community service . Close borders to new unless from agreed original country .

 @9P6WDRFanswered…2 days2D

Only process asylum in consulate in own country, UK asylum policy should be much stricter. 99% of the ones that arrive are economic migrants. Anyone who arrived illegally should be made to leave & not allowed to return

 @9P6W9VXanswered…2 days2D

They should be allowed to employ all redeployment of illegal immigrants that have already reached a safe country prior to the uk

 @9P6V4G6Sinn Féinanswered…2 days2D

Illegal Asylum Seekers should be sent to wherever they own citizenship, if no citizenship information is available Rwanda is where they will be sent.

 @9P6Q8BCanswered…2 days2D

Yes but only as a result of other European countries who have now started doing this, don't think initially it was a good idea and doesn't scale well.

 @9P6PVG9answered…2 days2D

No, but there does need to have an effective deterrent on the illegal immigration such as passing back to other countries

 @9P6Q22Tanswered…2 days2D

I think the idea is good but the situation needs to be treated more delicately and ensure safety for them.

 @9P6LG6Fanswered…2 days2D

Yes, if they come from a background that is demographically / religiously similar. Its been handled & sold poorly.

 @9P6LB25answered…2 days2D

It is worth a trail period - since there has been so much agency invested in it - and there is no other policies in the offering

 @9P68HQCanswered…2 days2D

No but they should be sent back to the first Neutral (safe) country they entered when they escaped their home land.

 @9P6442QLibertariananswered…2 days2D

Genuine asylum seekers should be allowed to remain, however, those that are arriving from a safe country such as France should be returned to the safe country they have travelled from or to Rwanda.

 @9P63MQBanswered…2 days2D

they should treat all as humans and not treat ANYNOE as a criminal unless they are- the term "illegal immigrants" turns innocents who are desperrate to flee but cant afford other channels as criminals and that's wrong

 @9P62KRFanswered…2 days2D

Wherever we send them it will cost money, preferably send them back home as long as it's not dangerous to do so but we need to stop them coming. Increase steps to stop the criminal gangs and stop giving immigrants benefits until they have contributed to this country for a few years.

 @9P62463answered…3 days3D

People should be sent back to country of origin unless there is convincing evidence they will be killed or tortured.

 @9P5M79Fanswered…3 days3D

Illegal asylum seekers should be applying for citizenship in the first safe haven to their country, they should have to disclose any criminal convictions before entry to any countrty

 @9P5K4ZLanswered…3 days3D

We need a huge decrease in asylum seekers, so tougher restrictions are needed, UK citizens are struggling as it is

 @9P5GK7Ranswered…3 days3D

The illegal asylum seekers should be given a choice to return to their country of origin or to Rwanda.

 @9P543GCanswered…3 days3D

they should be returned to the port they travelled from, the uk have given £millions to aid the stop of illegal immigration. more support should be given to improve the lives in the countries these people are seeking asylum from

 @9P53ZHNanswered…3 days3D

yes, unless someone can come up with a better solution to control immigration and stop the small boats

 @9P52J5Tanswered…3 days3D

It depends on the situation and if migrants were sent to Rwanda, they shouldn't NOT be allowed to enter the UK.

 @9P4ZWTKReform UKanswered…3 days3D

I think we should welcome immigrants and asylum seekers. But serious checks should be made and if not, send home.

 @9P4WDP3answered…3 days3D

No, but they should have tighter controls on borders via illegal routes, faster processing times for legal applications and absolute and expedited deportation for anyone who is an unsuccessful applicant or who hasn’t applied prior to entry to the UK.

 @9P4NHBTanswered…3 days3D

Alternative asylum should be sought if it means that it will stop the negative effects of illegal immigration that are currently taking place

 @9P4NGT2answered…3 days3D

Illegal immigrants should be sent back to their own country, or at least to the first safe country they passed through, as per current policy

 @9P4LJBXanswered…3 days3D

No and rishi should have to replace that money personally he was so hell bent on putting it through.

 @9P49J3Sanswered…3 days3D

Not Rwanda, but the government should figure out a way to return illegal asylum seekers to their own country.

 @9P49CKWLondon Realanswered…3 days3D

Just send them back to where they come from, unless they are a law abiding citizen and making valuable contributions to Britain. i.e. what Australia do.

 @9P48H67answered…3 days3D

Not necessarily to Rwanda, send the illegal immigrants back to the country that they were in before they entered the UK illegally.

 @9P47ZGCanswered…3 days3D

Yes illegal asylum seekers should be removed from the country but maybe not Rwanda specifically as it’ll just move the problem to other areas
