British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has demanded that the “merry-go-round” of the legal system halt.

The UK Supreme Court overturned the policy on the same day that British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak threatened on Wednesday to bring back the practise of returning asylum seekers to Rwanda.

The top court in Britain declared that the government’s intention to transfer asylum seekers to Rwanda was illegal because of the dangerous conditions in which refugees live in that African nation.

In reference to immigration policy, Sunak said that “we need to end the merry-go-round” at a press conference held after five judges unanimously rejected the policy plan. He stated that he anticipates the departure of flights carrying migrants to Rwanda in the spring of the next year.

Even though the court indicated there was a “real risk” that migrants would face persecution, Sunak said the act would “confirm Rwanda is safe.” The prime minister posted on X, formerly Twitter, saying, “We’ve been working on a new international treaty with Rwanda, and we will ratify it without delay.”

“We will give a legal guarantee that those who are relocated from the UK to Rwanda will be protected,” he continued, referring to London. According to Sunak, the British people anticipate a halt to the influx of migrant boats.

The prime minister also failed to indicate when the legislation would be introduced or how it would circumvent the Supreme Court’s decision.

“This is really an amended version of plan A—a treaty that he is introducing into law. He’ll find himself back in the docket. The Guardian cited Suella Braverman, a friend of Sunak’s former home secretary, as stating, “More magic tricks from Rishi’s magical thinking.”

Following a slew of scandals, Sunak fired Braverman as home secretary on Monday. Following her resignation, she continued to voice criticism of the prime minister’s immigration policies.

A deal was made in April 2022 between Rwanda and Britain to send boat migrants to the East African nation for lodging.

The British government has agreed to pay Rwanda at least £140 million ($175 million) as a result of the scheme. In an emergency move, the European Court of Human Rights stopped the first deportation flight scheduled for June 2022.
