- No deportation flights to Rwanda will take off under a Labour government, Sir Keir Starmer has told Sky News.
The Labour leader told Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby "there'll be no flights" as he wants to "scrap the scheme", which aims to send asylum seekers entering the UK illegally from a safe country, such as France, to Rwanda.

UK citizens cast your vote wisely 👀
UK citizens haven't cast their votes wisely for many years now.
They haven't for 14 years, why start now?
@@Nickelodeon81 Yes, that was my reply last night (They haven't since 2010) before RUclips censored and deleted my comment.
How? There is no wise vote
The uk electorate are not wise. Voting the same 2 parties for 100 years is insanity
Labour would be just as useless on illegal immigration 😢
Yes, useless, but without spending billions being useless like the Torys.
They'll be worse
He is so power hungry
He will say whatever it takes to get your vote,
Talks about nothing will deliver the same
Much worse
Can't be worse.
It’s an absolute waste of money. It was only ever for 200 people anyway. How many millions have those idiots wasted on it ??
Literally, also at least very questionable in terms of obedience towards international laws and treaties, and therefore rather harmful towards the perception of the UK by a lot of important international institutions, NGO’s, activists and the general community (rightfully so)
How much has labour spent on lawyers stopping it.
Was this concept more about deterence?.... moreover, Labour are historically utterly useless when it comes to even running a piggy bank! They were probably also the ones that created this crisis back when Blair and Brown started up.
@@zuzannanowicka6348 Brexit has caused irrevocable damage to the UK. It seems that those (unfortunately) in charge of my country now just don't care any more how much more damage they are going to cause.
@@alandraper7901 of their own money ? Who cares 🤷♂️
I think he was pretty clear he can't cancel the flight due to the simple fact he is not in the government
Get more people
Out the country it’s too dense
Hes saying he wants to address the root cause indtead of sending 200 illegals to Africa.
Will anyone address excess legal migration?
UK remains a landlords paradise.
While watching this i couldn't help notice how awful the reporter was asking him easy questions zero scrunity on his policy or how it would stop the boats and people smugglers saying she was poor is an understatement
He is really not reliable and utterly goes with the flow. I’m afraid with Keir he seems to say anything to fool the people; just another empty drum beat. STOPPING THE BOAT Is not an overnight Process and Rishi has turned the corner towards doing Something BUT it takes trial and Error to bring about some success!!!
Ever get the feeling "net zero" refers to the indigenous UK population!? 🙄
Yes, I believe that was the policy of the Angles and the Saxons.
No
I will never answer a straight question.
He answered every question
Win power by simply not answering a question
Works for the Tories!!!
Well what a surprise. He won't answer simple questions.
How many times is this joker gonna say “viletrade” 😂
Like he did in Northern Ireland at the GFA where he and Blair freed the IRA prisoners and hung the security forces as war criminals.
well said
If them glasses were supposed to make Starmer look intelligent-- they've failed !!
As a Labour voter.....they just lost my vote.
They don't need it
Hide the security services behind the trees on the beach.
This guy will let them all in he can't give an answer he only in it for what he can earn
Yvette Cooper say no more. God help us.
The better UK demographics change the better. The colonisers getting colonised.
Have the Rwanda flights actually started?
No, Keir Starmer and his legal team are stopping it.
they sent 1 guy who wasn't actually an asylum seeker because he'd already had his asylum denied, they paid him to go and now he's disappeared so no doubt he will be making his way across europe shortly with Rwandan paperwork in hand to claim asylum
@@hexrag5901 And we all the loot 💰💸
No and they won’t start either
They can only send 200 per year and rwanda send some back in return so it's pointless anyway, especially at £1.8 million per refugee
he talks a lot but doesnt actually do anything that NEEDS doing NOW like sending the boat people back to france
This was 34 minutes ago so he may have changed his mind.
The labour party offer absolutely nothing
Whereas Truss ...
Whereas Johnson, Cleverly, and that double barrelled haunted pencil? 🤣
No plan. No numbers. He's playing a guessing game😂 Rigby did a great job of pressing for numbers. This isn't a new issue, so he must have some idea of how many. Of course unless otherwise, he has no plan.
Fun fact the people we would’ve sent there would be issued a Rwandan passport. One of the conditions of the scheme is that we can’t deport anyone with a Rwandan passport.
Given the amount we would be paying they could easily put them on a flight back after they get their passport and pocket the difference.
The guy NEVER answered a simple question once!!!
The one they actually sent to Rwanda went missing! Go figure! 🤨
Starmer will let them all in, open the floodgates.
Needs the woke vote, reality is he will need to do something like rwanada. Easy to pick winning sides of a tough point but there is no alternative.
What is woke?
Oh no , so asylum seekers will stay here 😢 some of them are so dangerous what I have seen
technically aren’t asylum seekers as soon as they reach a safe country, which is usually next . they are economic migrants after travelling through 10+ safe countries
Mentioning gangs means I wont do fuc**o""!!
OH NO ....Sunak's staying in power! 😥
That’s the UK buggered then
Only 100 immigrants can be deported per year, hardly a difference.
As opposed to what? The status quo that is £11,000 per ticket to Rwanda per person + £20,000 to Rwanda's govt per person on the plane + another £120 Million! after 300 people have arrived. For what? Sending a a couple of hundred people to Rwanda each year. Doesn't even touch the sides mate. That money could be better spent on something that might actually work.
it's meant as a deterrent.
We are already paying over 12 million a day for hotels plus interpretaters and lawyers.
They have already started going elsewhere to avoid being deported.
@@ZuZee02
😂🤣 just spotted that thanks .👍
@@snowyowel7961 But how many people are known to have been deterred? A handful and at the cost of over £500 Million so far. I agree the £12M per day is ridiculous (and BTW it's a lot more than that). But the solution to that is to process them quickly rather than leave them in hotels for years.
If the Tories have plan stopping the boats .It’s not working.
Basically he doesn’t want to give Africa no money. Instead of shutting immigration down
Old Vincey lived in good old Rwanda and it was a charming little place
Why didn't she ask him succinctly IF he'd introduce safe routes and WHEN as THAT is the only antidote for the "small boats" phenomena.
She's scored an "F" as a reporter if she doesn't.
Stupid questions
"i look forward to meet the CHALLENDGE" - John Sweeney MsP , recentlly , 👏👏👏👏🇬🇧
It s not a gimmick, it s a stand, a statement
My god she’s such a stone faced journalist
Rigby is such a cringe hack. Obsessed with specific numbers and a level of detail on future commitments which are actually negligible but make good snark like “Flights to Rwanda will continue under Starmer”. So cringe.
Exactly, softballs dressed as hardballs
Stop asking the same question over and over
Instead what will he do
Oh my God ! Is this pr#ck really going to be our next PM ?
So he would keep them in and leep letting them in and straight away he is talking about money
good it's a waste of money the tories have got their hand in Rwanda so they are making money somewhere at the expense of the public
So he definitely won't scrap them. The man is a compulsive liar.
Always has been. He will destroy this country. The Uni poss party
Thank god for that!
I never voted for sunak, this government is not legal anymore. We need to go to general election NOW!!
Does he know what a women is yet or is he too scared to say
Such a dumb question
She is so annoying.
Labour would open the flood gates even more
Vote Reform please, we’ll get more Labour MP’s
Lego head talks funny
The flights are a massive money spinner and wont actually take off. So good.
Israel had a "voluntary departure" scheme for 4,000 migrant deportations with Rwanda between 2014 and 2017. Most were driven straight to the border. Almost all are thought to have left the country almost immediately, with many attempting to return to Europe via people-smuggling routes.
Rwandan homes that were previously earmarked to house migrants deported from the UK have already been sold to local buyers. the developer has said.
Some 70% of the 163 affordable homes on the Bwiza Riverside estate have been sold, the developer ADHI-Rwanda said.
On top of the £220 million Britain has already paid Rwanda, the UK government has agreed to pay an extra £150 million over the next three years, and £120 million pounds once the first 300 asylum seekers have been resettled, the National Audit Office (NAO) said on Friday 1st March 2024.
He actually wont do yes or no
What about all the illegal migrants here in the uk whats his stance?
July 05th stop the flights
The decorative crab speaks again.
STOP the free handouts and Using are Taxes to home feed these people, if there was no handouts then they won't come.
That’s a big mistake
I love Starmer trolling Rigby.
No just give them all free houses and flats automatically.
Good idea but let's do that for everybody. Nobody should be homeless.
@mousearmy why is it the responsibility for the british taxpayer to house the whole world? We should focus on our own let them hold their countries to account.
I should be prime minister iam a nutter but fair
Good!!!
Yay! More free stuff for more illegal immigrants.
hence reason why would not vote labour
always sit on the fence while the country crumbles
Amazing.
Snake
Jesus - this fella might actually make me vote tory 🤢
Trying to beat LauraK to worst interviewer
"Smash the gangs" using silly limp words hollow. Then throwing his QC line in , to give him some kind of respect, the guy is a career politician , he just wants to power and tag of PM, to him country come second, role first. That for me , is a no no
There all a waste of space!
I like Beth.... she seems a decent interviewer.... miles ahead of the Tory Keunsberg
My policy wud be to scrap tories and replace with ians happy party
And what can he do solve this diaster? Nothing at all
Has he switched to glasses (over contacts) for a reason? Makes no practical difference but in the heat of campaigns, I suspect even asthetic changes are a product of conscious choice.
Lost my vote
WHO CARES!
The uk citizens care
Never had your vote. Always be honest.
@@countfosco8535 personally, I want the tories out. But we haven’t got much to choose from have we. I’m just hoping the monster raving lunatic party are still around. They’ve got my vote
❤
Wont be voting for them !
The lady wants a zinger all she did was get mad.
Flip flop sounds like a robot
Search the flip-flop song it is fantastic. It’s sung by pilfingerdanston.
It's ok everyone kier slimy and his family has 24/7/365 armed militiamen protection so he doesn't give any fooks
As an American I always find UK illegal immigration numbers laughable. I know they're not, but in the US your numbers are impossibly aspriational.
U.K. is a small, already overcrowded country. America is huge with lots of room left for immigrants.
@@briantitchener4829 fair enough
Because bliar gave the supreme court supremacy over our parliament even when laws are passed by our elected representatives.the Rwanda bill removed this anti British court acting illegally, by interpreting the human rights laws ,not implementing their original meaning, they should have all been sacked for this a couple of years ago for that.starmer will give this power back and happy days for lawyers on the take.thats why..
Don't listen to him don't vote for Labour but most will because Labour are an easy touch just like Tony Blair did in 1997
Yep weve all been set up to give them a large majority. I want no part in that.
Enjoy 15-20 years of Labour government.
They've just lost my vote..woke politics
Got to laugh at all the Tory/Reform voters pretending that Starmer has "lost their vote".
He will not answer questions so if elected he could do whatever he wanted just like Sunak does. For goodness sake lets get off this merry-go-round and vote for REFORM UK, it could not be worse than the alternatives.
Vote reform uk
Why?,they'd probably scrap it,as they also say its a gimmick that will achieve nothing
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No Way
His promises don’t mean much, he’s a hundred promises a day sort of bloke.
Another reason not to vote for them
Not be voting for this guy, let's hope Farage steps up to the plate.
I like dear Beth, but asking the same question over and over on the numbers...Keir said he wants to bring them down and get the gangs and stop them sending people across the channel. Sounds good to me!
She'd be a good reporter if she developed oerspective.
No more Rwanda!
lost my vote already
Awful heartless man.
I know but don't worry Sunak will soon be gone.
Not one should be allowed to stay if they come by boat
Vote Labour... make a Tory cry.
Of course he will and absolutely right.
Flip flop liebour
He'd just gove em a passport at Dover and house and money
