UK home secretary Suella Braverman has insisted that Britain’s new migration bill is within the bounds of international and domestic law, as the government braces for legal disputes over the controversial legislation.
The illegal migration bill, unveiled in the House of Commons earlier this week, bars any individual regarded to have entered into the UK illegally from ever claiming asylum.
The legislation also imposes a “legal duty” on the home secretary to remove such people to a “safe” third country or to their country of origin.
