Asylum seekers facing deportation from Britain to Rwanda are given as few as seven days to appeal, and told they should have sought refuge in another country, leaked documents reveal.
The government is sticking to its plans to deter migrants who arrive in on small boats and hidden in lorries by dispatching them to Africa despite strong objections from human rights groups, the UN, opposition MPs and the head of the Church of England.
Some asylum seekers have already been told they are facing expulsion and have received paperwork, published by ITV News, selling Rwanda as the “land of a thousand hills” and describing it as a safe and welcoming country.
The brochure tells people they are facing deportation because they travelled through “a safe third country where you should, or could have, claimed asylum”, typically referring to France.
Migrants who believe they should not be deported are given seven days to provide a written appeal if they are being kept in detention, or 14 days if they were not in detention when they received the paperwork.
