It’s so weird. This Rwanda-deportations idea has been taken up by politicians in other countries as well, despite very obviously being completely illegal because of Human Rights. But as the UK government insists on pushing for this bogus illegal measure, “conservatives” all over Europe pretend like the idea is validated and supposedly it’s going to “solve migration”. Or something.
By the same logic if the planet explodes there’s going to be problems. Just because you can invent a scenario in which it’s a bad idea doesn’t mean that scenario exists.
The non-hypothetical is that climate change is going to massively worsen outcomes of poor people, especially in tropical and subtropical regions. The rate of migration from Africa to Europe is only going to increase longer term, no matter how many dictatorships EU and UK are making deals with. Unless we act to limit climate change and help people in these regions to adapt. But in any case, we need to learn to better deal with migrants rather than try to keep them at bay at all cost.
Exactly! They will come, no matter what. But of we create a welcoming climate and a dynamic culture, we can all benefit from that. There is a correlation between the size of a country’s population and its economic success, if the country is politically stable. Hate against immigrants creates nothing but instability though.
