Asylum Seekers
- Repeal the Government plans to send illegal immigrants to Rwanda:
- Seven offshore vessels will be harboured on the English Channel whereby all illegal immigrants trying to cross into Britain will be initially processed on the vessels, before either making their way to the UK or back to France (depending on not if their application has been successful or not).Â
- Try and reach an agreement with France to be able to return the migrants back to France should their application be deemed unsuccessful.
- End indefinite detention for Asylum Seekers.
- Make detention an absolute last resort, introduce a 90 day time limit on detention and increase the number of detention centres from nine to twelve.

- Allow asylum seekers to work after 3 months.
