Top court upholds ruling that UK's Rwanda migrant plan is unlawful

LONDON - The UK Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that the government's scheme to send asylum seekers to Rwanda was unlawful, dealing a massive blow to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's immigration policy and major election pledge before a vote expected next year.

The court unanimously rejected the government's appeal against an earlier ruling that migrants could not be sent to Rwanda because it could not be considered a safe third country.
