Offshoring refugees by force to Rwanda is inhumane and cruel
Nothing about this plan makes sense, writes CLAUDIA WEBBE MP, unless it's simply aimed to disgust and enrage all decent people — it is illogical and fails on its own terms, costing us far more than exercising basic humanity to refugees

THE proposal to deport asylum-seekers 4,000 miles away to Rwanda is a desperate and shameful announcement by Boris Johnson in an attempt to dehumanise refugees, pit our communities against each other and distract from his own law breaking.
