RWANDA is a \u201csafe\u201d country to deport illegal immigrants and bring an end to \u201cperilous\u201d Channel crossings, Britain\u2019s top judges were told.<\/p>\n

Suella Braverman's lawyers are facing off against left-wing campaigners in a crunch Supreme Court battle to decide the fate of the flagship asylum plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The opening skirmishes of a three-day hearing saw the government insist that Rwanda was \u201cless attractive\u201d than Britain to live \u201cbut nevertheless safe\u201d.<\/p>\n

Home Office barrister Sir James Eadie KC hailed the East African nation as a \u201cfriendly foreign state\u201d that was \u201cfully committed\u201d to its side of the multi-million-pound deal.<\/p>\n

A High Court judgement that Rwanda was safe was overturned last summer by the Court of Appeal essentially on a technicality.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Two judges were concerned that there was no guarantee the Kigali government would not later deport the migrants back to their home countries, where they could face persecution.<\/p>\n

But today Sir James stressed there were \u201cvery powerful\u201d incentives for Rwanda to honour the deal that sees it take in Britain\u2019s illegal migrants in exchange for \u00a3140million.<\/p>\n

And he told the five Supreme Court judges of the \u201cserious and pressing need to take effective steps that will act as a deterrent to those undertaking the perilous and sometimes life-threatening journey, typically across the Channel, from a safe country.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 20,000 people have arrived in the UK on small boats already this year, with Mr Sunak yearning to get Rwanda off the ground as a visible deterrent.<\/p>\n

Yet lawyers representing asylum seekers told the court Rwanda was a \u201chighly autocratic repressive state\u201d which \u201cimprisons, tortures and murders those it considers to be its opponents\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Raza Husain KC said: \u201cThe Rwandan asylum system is woefully deficient. It's marked by acute unfairness and arbitrariness… serious safeguarding and capacity issues.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even if the Supreme Court green-lights the plan, ministers are bracing for a battle with the European Court of Human Rights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Strasbourg judges grounded the first would-be flight in June 2022 using an eleventh-hour injunction.<\/p>\n

The meddling has sparked a clamour from many Tory MPs to pull Britain out of their remit.<\/p>\n
