Drop plans to send refugees to Rwanda
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
The government have announced plans to send refugees, who have a right under international law to claim asylum in the UK, to Rwanda to claim asylum there. This contravenes our international obligations and is inhumane. The government should drop these plans.
