London (HOL) — In response to the UK government's controversial plan to deport migrants to Rwanda, many asylum seekers are fleeing to Ireland, fearing the harsh deportation policies. The UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has stated that from July, the government intends to begin deportations as a deterrent against illegal crossings from France by small boats. The move comes despite a lack of formal agreements to return asylum seekers to France following Brexit.
