Rwanda: How safe is the UK's planned destination for asylum seekers?

- The UK Supreme Court ruling against the government's deportation deal was judged solely on whether Rwanda is a safe place to send asylum-seekers. The Rwandan government tells Sky News it has worked hard to make sure the country is functional and wants to give people a home.
'Come as a guest, leave as a friend' is the sign that greets visitors as they drive into the grounds of Hope Hostel.
No one has come to stay as a guest since late May 2022 when the UK government first booked out the 50-room building in anticipation of the approval of its plan to deport unwanted asylum seekers here.

How safe is UK now considering the mass number of asylum seekers and immigration ? Please share both sides of the story
If the useless government processed the asylum seekers we would not have a problem
Sky UK, ITV, CH4, Five, BBC, or any mainstream media will only ever give one-sided bias reporting. Send them to British Antarctic Territory. After two weeks, they would be begging for flights to their own country
Exactly
Still very safe
@@JD365-ls5cw not safe at all, they are murderers rapists and thieves on the run and we don't want these men in Britain
Vastly safer than Londonistan.
Lol
where is that?
Safer than here I would say looking at the state of our country .
Why aren't they asking how safe WE are, from them. Truth is, they don't care about us, who they have a duty of care towards.
Stay mad 😂

They won’t settle there because they can’t get away with anything and they don’t get the benefits that we give them send as many of them as possible to Rwanda ASAP
The man in the video was clear about that.
He's waiting for Canada where he'll be having more economic prospects than Africa. Safety isn't a problem.
There is something that kagame doesn't want the people to know about the genocide it's committed in Congo, which is why kagame wants to show as good or it's a serious killer with a trophy of 12millions of Congolese peoples in which the world still in silence
I’m only concerned about the safety of the English in England and retaining our culture and values.
We English are a mongrel race, made up of all kinds of people. We're all descended from immigrants.
Those fruits won't pick themselves up , mate. Besides, look at the behind the scenes activists that helped bend the court decision . Chamber of commerce ( look at the GDG numbers), all " human rights " organizations ( sponsored by So.ros nebulous organizations) . Just check out the background of each of those. And reflect on the larger picture.
Dito ❤
How do think that’s going to work when Braverman and the Govt of ‘taking back control’ are choosing to admit record busting levels of ‘failing multiculturalism’.
Small boats a distraction….obviously.
Here, here 👏👏
These guys get into another country and immediately set about destroying it. I.e Making it like the wonder they came from . Good luck
How safe is England for the English? How safe is Scotland for the Scots? How safe is Wales for the Welsh? How safe is Northern Ireland for the Northern Irish, now that we are all flooded with foreigners from every cess pit on earth?
I would say it’s pretty safe. I live in London and I’ve never had issues as a single woman
As a welsh i can safely say the balance is already feeling off for what u would say is ur own country. not even talking about 10+ years ahead.
@@Xeeni87this is because the UK invaded so many countries so it’s biting them in the foot now
@@hammadsiddiqui8421 oh do shut up with that same line ... thousands of war has been happening over generations. Afghanistan was harbering isis while they were attacking the west... it was not all for none reason.
While iraq i agree didnt not go as planned but to pretend it was all our fault is laughable. What about yemen jews that were killed or in an other muslim country u dont see them taking their fair share for humanity.
@@Xeeni87 “Iraq didn’t go as planned” is a bit of an understatement. Over 1 million people died for no reason.
We have enough immigrants! Let’s worry about uk citizens who have lived here all our lives!
Then don't vote for Stammer
Rwanda is beautiful and warm weather all year around
Much better to turn the boats back . Were creating problems for the future
We voted away our rights to do that in 2016
People who voted leave in the EU referendum did away with this country's right to do that.
@@splintercast8092 Really? Cuz Brits were also forced to allow migrants with the EU pact. Britain could vote to turn every boat of migrants away that pulls up on its shore at gun point. But they dont
100% correct, Britain is the most SOFTEST and STUPID country in the world, doesn't care about its own people.
Probably safer than some areas of the UK. Looks lovely, nice weather. Why no questions on why they didn't want to stay there and wanted to get to europe ?
but do they have all expenses paid 5 star hotels?
Work
To
Benefits
They dont stay in the city and they dont have any skills or jobs that could sustain their lives where as the refugees from the uk would be living in the city where they have more opportunities
Rwanda has worked so damn hard to get to where its at. There is a reason no one wants those asylum seekers, so the question really should be how unsafe is Rwanda willing to get. Rwanda might be making the same huge mistake that Europe made in 2014+ taking Asylum seekers other Muslim nations refused.
12 asylum
seekers were shot dead by police in 2018
Not only that, but Rwanda had a genocide in the 90s. What would stop them from killing these people?
@@t.l.c7481australia and america also had genocides !!.. america and australia r way more violent .. rwanda is rated one of the safest countries in the world.. and cleanest..
@@t.l.c7481 What stops Germany from killing millions of people there today, considering what Hitler did?
@shamailsiddiqui1403 Absolutely true! I will be the only American to point it out. Germany took only 5-6 years; we stretched our genocide through decades. The Native Americans people groups are gone. I live in an area named after Native Americans yet there are no more descendants of that tribe. Human beings are destructive with their hate. That hate gets elevated with religion. Don’t get me started on the history of slavery which dehumanized and murdered countless Africans. Germany acknowledges their sins, yet we’re so delusional about our superiority here that we cannot acknowledge our many sins in the “land of the free.”
Safe enough. Let's get on with it.
It's a joke, this govt are clueless. Processing the asylum seekers promptly is the fairest way.
Rwanda, it's not a safe place, even for Rwanda people
@@user-zg4tb7fn2bso what? As long as it’s safe for decent chance of survival then that’s all that is required
The question should be is how safe is the UK with to many asylum seekers..
Very safe, why wouldn't we be?
@@alankenny4335Not at all and the violent crime increase shows that.
@@alankenny4335 we're not safe at all.
lack of danger awareness is a mental illness@@alankenny4335
Wrong description.They are not asylum seekers, they are illegal migrants.
If their lives were so bad they would be pleased to be in any safe country.
Exactly
Rwanda is safer than Libya and Somalia
Wow free accommodation comes with a picturesque view and those serving portions of free food are enormously huge for just a meal! That is more than what I can afford for a day. It's time to set off to the UK as an economic migrant lol
Weak satire.
I’ll live there probably safer there than in London atm with all the Palestinian mobs and their hate marches
With colonization and all, the west is marketed as heaven. By all means, Africa is heaven abundant in resources and favourable climate. Most westerners visiting would attest to this. With colonized minds, of course they'd hope for the west. Maybe if the western countries mandate their puppets they've propped up and installed in leadership positions in Africa to allow economic development. U'd see way less immigrants almost instantly
Looks like a holiday to me ! And they still aren’t happy . 😊
its probably better than where they are coming from
To answer the above question, who cares?? A more appropriate question may be, how safe will Rwanda be, once they have arrived?
It's going to be a lot safer the way England is going
No one has chosen to settle in Rwanda because they don’t have a welfare system like the UK. That’s the only reason people come here
Not the only reason, don’t forget that the Uk destroyed many countries lately, so get ready for more poor people to come . The Uk created it’s own problems 😅
The UK accepts asylum claims from Rwandans around twice as many per year as Rwanda has agreed to take from the UK.
@@Sarah-TordjmanRubbish! Stop talking utter crap.
No-one destroyed anything in Africa other than Africans.
It's the shithole that keeps on giving.
@@stevec6427That's a complete lie.
@@Sarah-Tordjmanthat is such a RACIST lie
How safe is the UK population with hundreds of thousands of fighting age men mainly from the 3rd world illegally entering the Country with a backward idoly?
I think we should care more about the indigenous UK population over criminals entering the country illegally.
Having been there as a tourist,a country sponsored by Arsenal,PSG and Bayern Munich.. it seemed safe.. soon to be the Singapore of Africa.
Хуюхур ин африка! 😂
Sending refugees a blood thirsty dictatorship and 12 asylum seekers were shot dead by police in 2018.
Rwanda is a safe country with no war, but for how long? Rwanda destabilises DRC, DRC will hit but very soon.
Why is no one mentioning we'll be swapping random refugees for Rwandans
Or the maximum of 200 per year?
That's untrue and it's been debunked many times
Those are some pretty huge portions of food being served up to those migrants -- can I have some?
I know people who have been to Rwanda. It is one of Africa's success stories -- very clean, safe, and orderly. The men interviewed are economic migrants, like 99% of those who come to Europe. They are not in any danger where they are. They want Scandinavian welfare payments -- who wouldn't?
The irony of the women sitting in clean, safe accommodations talking about how bad it is in Rwanda is laughable.
The "hostel" the UK booked to house deportees looks like a 5-star resort hotel to me.
The vastly overpopulated United Kingdom is in such a serious state of decline in so many different area's and this mass invasion of illegal immigrants is contributing massively to the myriad of problems we as a nation are now confronted with.
The Rwandan ambassador has stated up to 5000 migrants can be sent there. Meanwhile, British industry is trying to fill 957,000 vacancies (office for national statistics, oct 23). The governement don't know how many people are in the UK illegally - they haven't estimated it since 2005 when they thought it was 400,000. They really have no idea what they're doing or even what they're trying to do. There's no actual point : it's just theatre to please conservative trolls without considering the country's needs.
At 571/km2 Rwanda population density is more than double the U.K. 280/km2. Your argument is absurd. Rwanda has got to be much worse than the UK to serve as a deterrent to wannabe migrants anyway.
Really safe according to MP's who would absolutely hate living there.
Exactly these MPs stay in their country manors with their beautiful views of the countryside its us mere mortals that get them next to us where they don’t want to work or integrate or abide by our laws
Why Rwanda ? We own the Falkland islands ! Lots off space there .. I'm sure that floating hotel in dorset could get there !
I wish people took the time to learn about Rwanda, I worry what the impact of this plan will bring to Rwanda
😂 Don't worry. Many thinks it's a disavow of Rwanda but I see this political theatre as a joke on the UK. Maybe also a potential security threat to UK cohesion ( look at Sweden) despite its good history of assimilation and integration, times have drastically changed but the UK may haven't realized yet. Just look at even many on the left who were shocked at the huge protests ( about the Hamas war) in the streets of the UK.
Many hotspots of insecurity opening up in Horn of Africa and West Af. The traditional demographic sources of UK migration....
The UK will have to double down on efforts to assimilate if it wants productive, crime- free , gang free inner cities ( again look at Sweden). And to absord the migrants effectively in the job market.
This is a medium and long-term opportunities vs threats for the UK.
But for Rwanda, short-term, the political theatre may not hurt it . The fact that it's even discussed as a destination may be something positive.
But africans who dream about emigrating to the West for economic reasons are alienated ( as evidenced in the video).
The UK owes them…NOTHING.
Very very safe 👍🏽
Beggers can’t be choosers!! Uganda has well over a million many settled there worked and built companies so many in Kenya too so Rwanda can do the same specially now been the cleanest of them all
Accommodation looks nice , what's the problem
Safer than their own country…so they shouldn’t complain
Its safer than Bradford and Birmingham😊
We couldn't care less if it's safe or not! They're not welcome anymore here and they better understand that!
For every one we send over there we have to accept one Rwandan in return lol
When were they welcome?
@@fatuglyjakeThat's hilarious 😂! And untrue! Been debunked several times...
Why Rwanda? Is Rwanda indebted to the UK? Why not other European countries? Rwanda is just building its economy, they suffered a great loss in 1994, this could bring up another war or trouble in Rwanda.
Rwanda has a 2 % population of Islamic culture and in fact your lucky to have 2% . They are actually lovely people in Rwanda and they don't tolerate bullshite
Probably safer than the country they fled in terror from👌
If the country is clean and safe it means it has stronger leadership and it's only the law breakers that will feel unsafe
Rwanda is perfectly safe. It's never been sanctioned by the UN for human rights. It's one of very few countries where LGBT is legal. They have a labour shortage. They want people. Send every migrant to Rwanda. It won't please extremists on either side, but it makes sense.
LGBT is not legal and won't be
Send us instead! See how they like it.
Let’s look at how safe England is for its citizens !!!!!!!!!!
Rwanda has a lower crime rate than the uk
Safer than the UK is for its population that didnt come on a dingy. We went through social evolution to get our society. Now its their turn to sort their owns social problems out not create them here
Very safe.
Rwanda has had its wars in the passed but its clearly a country that has learnt from it and our moving in a positive direction. The hostels looks clean and nice (especially for someone that has nothing and are asking for help), rwanda needs workers so its a win win to me. The asylum seekers should not be complaining, its an opportunity for a fresh start.
It actually looks very nice..
The vastly overpopulated United Kingdom is systematically being destroyed economically, environmentally, societally, politically, morally, culturally and ethnically. Absolutely deplorable.
Alot safer than the uk is with all this lot walking the streets 😮
Just because an African government is making huge progress for his people Sky news and the BBC can't let that happen. Black people can't be in charge of anything according to them.
Yes it is safe guys believe us I’m living in uk since 8years I’m still crying because I’m homeless
Safer than Birmingham ….
Who cares, these illegal immigrants are not our problem, once gone forget about them.
Rwanda is great place for asylum seekers.
Why very asylum seeker thinks it’s his legal right to stay in uk on benefits.
First time uk govt made a good decision.
Terrible all those poor people trying to get our free benefits, education, health care, etc etc, at our expense
The uk took in 128 asilum seekers this year from Rowanda. So its to dangerous for Rowandans but this government says it's safe for everyone else..... Madness !!!!
If Rwanda is safe why don't they take back their people who are in Uganda as refugees and their Citizens other than seeking to help other people from different Countries?
Let Rwanda settle their people from Congo and neighbouring Countries. MONEY MONEY
HELP YOUR CITIZENS FIRST PLEASE RWANDA GOVERNMENT. ALL RYES ARE ON RWANDA.
Safe Rwanda 🇷🇼 one of the most cleanest and beautiful countries I’m not sure why those people don’t want to stay and build
The beauty of the rwanda plan is that migrants are now safe and happy in Dublin
Apparently safer than France 🇫🇷
Safer than the UK. For us
Who cares as long as they leave our island. We are struggling and don’t need the extra pressure. We’ve had enough…
I assume these are economical asylum
Why do I care? So my taxes money is spent on someone decided to leave their country ? FFS.
How much is the block booking being paid by uk
Put the IDF in charge of the UK borders. They know how to deal with troublemakers.
Like yourself...
Rwanda is a beautiful country. For many, Africa isn't what they consider safe. But the reality is, many African countries are super safe and prosperous.
Just wonder why Rwanda accepted the deal with the UK though. Several other African countries, e.g. Botswana simply rejected it without much negotiations.
Errrr how safe are we having all.these unchecked immigrants in the country!?
Africa is massive.. Why don't they fight over there for a better life
Who cares !!
How safe is the UK with Asylum seekers here ?
Safer than Broken Britain!
Give me 40 Acres and a Mule. I'll move there myself.
Rwanda.. ..kenya...uganda.....Tanganika....are ALL gold mines of opportunities...ask the Indians. They did not get anything so good and ready made...they struggled and built businesses themselves through sheer hard work and dedication. We would highly recommend opportunity to live a beautiful life in Eastern Africa. Anywhere is safer then USA and Europe. Cannot understand the negative attitudes. We were born there and wish were able to return. Please be posItive and give it a go, it will be worth it in our opinion. Good luck all.
Well said, there are some great places in East Africa, I would add Ethiopia to the list (present troubles notwithstanding).
Im buying up property in Rwanda. Hotels apartment blocks. And offering them to DHSS UK to house immigrants. They are definatly coming to Rwanda. Even if it means leaving Human rights court. No court can stop this in 2024....
the hostels look amazing. clean, safe
How safe is the UK's planned destination for asylem seekers, what about how safe are the UK citizens if they are not?
Nearly a million people were hacked to death in Rwanda not very long ago.
30 years ago. 99% of migrants werent born at the time!!
Rwandan is safe ,there just want to be in europ or America
Safety and security of the people is necessary not to cherry pick the nation by creating regional problems.
I’m sorry if anyone feels unsafe. I feel unsafe in my home town of 48 years and it’s because of immigration. What do we do about that if your bothered?
This refugee convention bullshit has to come to an end. Everyone should stay their own countries and try to fix their own problems. We own them nothing.
How safe is crossing the med in a dingie hiking through any numbers of countries and crossing the channel in a dingie ...and SKY are asking how safe is Rwanda!!!!!????
God guve me strength.
Who cares
Rwanda has had 280 million for nothing so far
Shouldn't have torn the passport when getting down the boat...
We ought to send them to Ukraine.
Who cares?? Don't come illegally in the first place
Doesn't take long for all the thick racists to come up from the rabbit hole
Not just racist but chronic, frustrated loosers who lead pathetic lives... have bad jobs or no jobs. They are too weak for empathy and are looking to just vent their frustration... all while they are fully aware that regardless of what happens, nothing will change their pathetic lives or their low value society status...
And lefties to turn a blind eye
Their combined IQ is still in the single digits
Not planning to visit on holiday any time soon
It’s safer than France, apparently. Else all that rubbish would stay in France.
Seems like all the gammons consider Rwanda safe, yet none have been persecuted or are likely to be forced to go there. British exceptionalism at its finest.
Britain is exceptional. Get over yourself Trot.
Rwanda has a lower crime rate than the uk
@@tastypymp1287 lol how is Britain exceptional?
Because it is not their country.😊
@@vre7474 how does that make Britain exceptional?
It just a nonsense I don’t really know how the Rwanda president is like😡
They can send African or other black community asylum seekers to Rwanda, so when they are there they will find it easy to get along with people, get work permit and live. other white asylum seekers they can send them to Mauritius, as Mauritius is half French land, they can get job-work permit and live there. UK government should help these asylum seekers get work permit/job (CSR /TSR jobs) too to the country they are sending, they can get a contract singed with some company to give them jobs for 5 years after that they can figure out where to move or stay there if they like it there. A few days of hotel stay will not help them, instead give them jobs(5 year contract/work permit) so they can migrate to other countries.
Very! Keep sending them there!
More will come back, get ready 😂😂
@@Sarah-TordjmanOK, keep sending them back then.
They'll give up eventually.
The alternative is to continue being dragged down by low-value migration.
No free benefits, no council house. So not going to Rwanda
I'm sure Arsenal not so long ago had Visit Rwanda emblazoned across their shirts so I'm presuming its not a bad place, so why can't we sent asylum seekers there??
Actually Rwanda looks very cleaner and nicer than the U.K.
Why is every country on Earth's problem the UK's problem?
Because Britain once ruled the Earth, and caused a lot of these problems.
Because it caused 99% of those problems 😩
I have tried to travel to the UK legally several times but they keep denying me a visa. I will be travelling from Nigeria to Rwanda to seek asylum very soon. Wish me luck.
do not waste your time. Britain is destroyed by pirates and bandits. try Dubai or Saudi. They are very rich and stable countries. Britain is a warzone. everyone wants to leave Britain now
Much safer for morrocan,Tunisian, algerian,Tunisian, turkish,afgam,pakistani,syrian,Palestinian, Egyptians, Punjabi,bangladeshi
