U.K.'s Rwanda asylum seeker deportation plan is lawful, court rules

Britain's plan to send migrants to Rwanda is lawful, London's High Court ruled on Monday, in a victory for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak who has made a high-stakes political promise to tackle the record number of migrant arrivals in small boats. The Prime Minister is under growing pressure from his own members of Parliament and the public to deal with the arrivals.
