British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has overcome internal opposition from the parties in the dispute over his country’s asylum policy. A new law aimed at enforcing deportations to Rwanda, East Africa, received the necessary votes in parliament on Wednesday evening. 320 MPs voted in favor of the bill, 276 voted against.

The British government wants to deport to Rwanda people who enter the country without the necessary papers, regardless of their origin. They have to apply for asylum there; there are no plans to return to Britain.

The highest court in Great Britain has ruled this inadmissible. The government now wants to declare the East African state, which critics accuse of human rights violations, a safe third country by law. This is intended to avoid judicial review of the planned deportations as much as possible.

This did not go far enough for the right wing of Sunak’s Conservative Party; some also wanted to make appeals to international courts impossible. Moderate forces in the party rejected this – for fear of violating international agreements. In the next step, the law now goes to the British House of Lords, the second chamber in the legislative process.
