The only beneficiaries of this human trafficking scheme are the criminals who profit from sending migrants across dangerous waters. Illegal immigration into England doesn't benefit the migrants or the British taxpayers who bare the financial costs of housing them. Sunak's plan to end these crossings is the only viable solution.
While an argument can be made in favor of sending Albanians, in particular, back, Sunak's asylum system reconfiguration plan is neither sympathetic nor actionable. Ideas such as patrolling French coasts with "boots on the ground" or the failed Rwandan plan are ridiculous, and the many real asylum seekers among these arrivals deserve better than what the government has proposed so far.
