Home Secretary Suella Braverman confirmed on Tuesday that the UK Government has “no plans” to consider making special provisions for civilians from the war-torn country to access Britain. According to Braverman, “Our focus, first and foremost, right now, is to support British nationals and their dependents who want to leave Sudan.”
Middle Esat Eye Since armed conflict between rival factions of the military government of Sudan began on April 15, tens of thousands of Sudanese people have been fleeing their own country to seek protection in another.
But today, the Home Secretary confirmed that Sudanese refugees who arrive in the UK on small boats will have ‘come here illegally’ and will face deportation. She said those fleeing the conflict in Sudan would be detained and could be removed to Rwanda under the government’s Illegal Migration Bill.
The comments came after the Independent reported that Sudanese refugees face being criminalised and deported because there are no safe and legal routes for those fleeing the conflict.
Earlier, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak refused to commit to such a route when pressed by the SNP’s Westminster leader Stephen Flynn.

Watching the news, I saw no white native Brits getting off the planes. What I did see was hordes of Sudanese who “fled” earlier conflicts, arrived in the UK, successfully gained asylum and had gone back for a vacation.

Jo they dont have to worry about making corridors for anybody because germanys foreighn minister (baerbock) is at the time is planning the evacuation of all helpers and like in afgahnistan the few german soldiers there had over 70.000 helpers and naturally not to forget their whole families. Nobody has to do anything as long as germany takes all but one little question i do have and it keeps comming up. Here the question, what will happen when germany is full or when the german money and patience run out. These questions are burning in my mind but no worry my answer i will get very soon.
