UK Government Faces Challenges in Implementing Rwanda Deportation Plan

The UK's controversial plan to deport migrants to Rwanda faces legal and operational hurdles, with key votes in Parliament this week.

Rwanda requests a staged start for the deportation of migrants, with the first flights unlikely before the end of May due to legal appeals.
Former Justice Secretary Sir Robert Buckland considers rebelling over the Rwanda bill, requiring proof that Rwanda is safe for migrants.
The UK government aims to overturn Lords' amendments that challenge the deportation plan, with crucial votes expected in the Commons and Lords.
Labour criticizes the government's asylum policy as a 'gimmick', proposing an alternative approach to handling asylum seekers.
The cost of the deportation plan could soar to half a billion pounds, raising concerns over its financial viability and effectiveness.
