‘I am very scared’: refugees await judgment on UK’s Rwanda policy

Law courts will deliver their verdict on Monday on whether plans to export asylum seekers are lawful

It has been more than three months since two of the UK's most senior judges sifted through thousands of pages of evidence and heard opposing arguments from some of the country's lawyers about whether or not the government's controversial plans to send asylum seekers to Rwanda are lawful. On Monday at 10.30am, at the Royal Courts of Justice, they will deliver their judgment.

The government's plan to export asylum seekers from one of the world's richest countries to one of the world's poorer nations, 4,000 miles away, is so radical that no other country has attempted anything like it.
