Rwanda Law Disapplied In Northern Ireland
A judge has ruled that provisions of the UK’s Illegal Migration Act should be disapplied in Northern Ireland, as they undermine human rights protections guaranteed in the region under post-Brexit arrangements.
Mr Justice Humphreys also said aspects of the Act were incompatible with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak vowed to appeal over the ruling and insisted the court judgment will not derail or delay his Rwanda scheme.
Talk’s Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by UK immigration lawyer Harjap Singh Bhangal to discuss the topic further.
Harjap says: “This is what happens when you don’t listen to experts, as this Government claims it did not want to do anymore.”
