London court permits appeal over UK’s Rwanda migrant plan

appeal
  • High Court in London granted permission to a group of asylum seekers.
  • The idea will prevent people smugglers.
  • Permission was also granted to consider whether the Home Office could rely on Rwanda’s assurances.

London’s High Court on Monday granted permission to a group of asylum seekers to appeal against a ruling that Britain’s plan to send migrants to Rwanda is lawful.

The British interior ministry said it will defend its policy, which is a key component of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s plan to deal with the high number of migrants arriving in small boats.

The administration claims the idea will prevent people smugglers, but it has been condemned by human rights organizations and even King Charles since its announcement in April.

The first planned deportation flight was halted last June by a last-minute judgment by the European Court of Human Rights, which imposed an injunction barring any deportations until the conclusion of legal proceedings in the United Kingdom.

The High Court concluded last month that it was legal for Britain to establish arrangements with the Rwandan government to transport asylum seekers there, but it upheld eight individual asylum seekers’ legal challenges.

Now those asylum seekers plus one other have been granted permission to appeal on several grounds, including that the High Court was mistaken to find the Rwanda removal policy was not “systematically discriminatory”.

Permission was also granted to consider whether the Home Office could rely on Rwanda’s assurances about the conditions for asylum seekers moved to the nation.

RRR gets on the BAFTA 2023 longlist instead of Gangubai Kathiawadi

RRR
  • The longlist for the BAFTA 2023 (British Academy Film Awards) has been released.
  • RRR, the SS Rajamouli film, has now joined the race.
  • Gangubai Kathiawadi, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, is no longer eligible.

The Alia Bhatt-starring film Gangubai Kathiawadi is apparently no longer eligible for the BAFTA 2023 longlist. RRR, the SS Rajamouli film, has now joined the race, though.

The longlist for the 24 categories of the BAFTA 2023 (British Academy Film Awards) has finally been released. The SS Rajamouli-directed film RRR, one of the biggest blockbusters to come out of India in 2022, has been added to the BAFTA 2023 longlist under the heading “Film not in the English language.” The creators of RRR announced the incredibly thrilling update on Friday, January 6, via a social media post. However, the film Gangubai Kathiawadi, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, is no longer eligible for a BAFTA.

Rumor has it that the film starring Alia Bhatt has been nominated for every major category on the BAFTA 2023 longlist, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Leading Actress. As part of the BAFTA Awards campaign, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali attended some significant events in London. This time, the director gave his first-ever BAFTA masterclass, during which he spoke at length about his storied Bollywood career. During a Q&A session, he spoke with film students as well. Bhansali had already received a BAFTA nomination for the beloved Devdas, starring Shah Rukh Khan, in 2003.
