Rwandan refugees living in the UK have posted a stark warning about the country’s safety as British lawmakers look to put the government’s controversial asylum seeker plan into action.
MPs on Monday night overturned all 10 Lords’ amendments to the Safety of Rwanda Bill, putting the legislation back in the hands of the peers in what will become a game of political ping-pong.

It was voted down by a 328-250 majority.
As the UK’s elected representatives debate the Bill, refugees from Rwanda who have been granted asylum in the UK have spoken out about the safety of their home country, giving a stark warning.
