Maybe try on a laptop or something. More were transferrred in to the U.K. than transferred out
If you're still struggling, it's the second one.
You keep saying more people were transferred to the UK than to other places. I don't think that's true overall, although it was after Brexit for some reason. Where are you getting your data from?

For example, in your link, they seem to be ignoring the earlier years when more people were removed than brought in.
But either way, as with a number of posters on this thread they are focusing too narrowly and completely ignoring the deterrent effects of Dublin. Focusing on the numbers sent either way doesn't tell you whether it worked for the UK. It's a completely different scale of effect when you're talking about a few thousand moved versus tens of thousands fewer arriving in the first place.

And then we have stories like this.

Truly tragic and disgraceful that the French police on the beach just stood by and allowed that disaster to unfold on their watch. Inexplicably the French border police then allowed what was then a crime scene to carry on its journey to the UK.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68930088
And we now have a number of migrants in our country who had no qualms about stomping a little girl to death beneath their feet so they could claim their spot on that boat.

This is a weird argument. I'm not suggesting Dublin was perfect and I've already said several times that it's obvious why it gradually failed, but it really couldn't be any more obvious that it was good for the UK for most of the time we were in it. Net inflows are far less relevant than its impact on intake.
Do you also think it was a coincidence that Albanian asylum intake fell off rapidly once we had a returns agreement in place with them? We already know that rapid processing and effective returns are the boringly effective way to bring down asylum intake and undermine smuggling.
Taking the first point, no it could be more obvious because you have taken a graph showing a rapidly declining asylum rate before the advent of Dublin and then paintshopped a wonky line showing the ‘Dublin’ affect.Do you also think it was a coincidence that Albanian asylum intake fell off rapidly once we had a returns agreement in place with them? We already know that rapid processing and effective returns are the boringly effective way to bring down asylum intake and undermine smuggling.
And then pegged the uptick on Brexit. Which does not seem to correlate with for example Germany’s experience. But then you say ignore everyone else and pay attention to my infographic as done by Sesame Street.
Colour me unimpressed.
On the second: well yes. And that is unsurprisingly how this is all going to play out: specific agreements to address local circumstances because an ‘EU wide resolution system’ means the square root of nothing. In the UK & Albania’s case they had to set up a dedicated ‘migration taskforce’ including specific checks on transits to the UK of Albanian citizens https://www.gov.uk/government/news/milestone-reach...
Or in the example of Germany from my earlier post 4000 returns out of 360000 applicants. A trend line increasing despite Dublin. Dublin is meaningless.
What you appear to be claiming is that one returns agreement that coincides with a significantly lower intake is good, and another returns agreement that coincided with significantly lower intake is meaningless. Gotcha. I think we can leave it there, given my entire point is that returns agreements reduce intake and you are at least acknowledging that can be the case.

First migrant has been flown out to Rwanda! We had to pay him £3k to go, but thats probably cheaper than paying for hotels here. Hope he doesn't try to come back.

The police will not enter the water to stop migrant boats. They will not put themselves into danger from migrants who are acting aggressively towards them in an already dangerous environment. The police are often massively outnumbered from determined migrants.And we now have a number of migrants in our country who had no qualms about stomping a little girl to death beneath their feet so they could claim their spot on that boat.
Same with French border force boats. When they intercept flimsy crafts filled with people who will act aggressively as they don’t want to rescued by French authorities so will fight back and again, an already dangerous situation is massively magnified.
It really is the lesser of two evils to let them go. Yes, there’s a risk as we’ve seen with the latest tragedy but can you imagine if they died as a direct result of French enforcement? They’d be hell to pay.
If the roles were reversed, I’m sure U.K. police and Border Force would have acted in exactly the same way.

Why have we collectively paid some bloke with a failed asylum claim 3 grand to go to Rwanda? I wasn't aware that we had two bonkers Rwanda based schemes running in parallel.
I'd be interested in visiting Rwanda if the government fancies paying for my flight and giving me 3 grand.
How brown are you?I'd be interested in visiting Rwanda if the government fancies paying for my flight and giving me 3 grand.
