Rejected petition Repeal cruel and inhumane policy to relocate refugees to Rwanda

The policy to relocate some refugees to Rwanda must be repealed. According to the UNHCR it is counter to International Law and is inhumane, racist, cruel and unjustified. Currently we take far fewer refugees than many other European countries and we can do better.

More details

Repeal this policy and offer refugees a fair and legal way to apply for asylum. All refugees applying to come to the UK should be treated with respect and dignity and not given differing treatment based on race, ethnicity or culture.
