"We will stop the landings but respecting international law".
British Interior Minister Suella Braverman said this when presenting the Tory government's bill introducing a drastic crackdown on illegal immigration in the House of Commons.
In presenting the Conservative executive's controversial plan, Braverman said that a discussion on the legislation with the European Court of Human Rights had begun, but she said she was "confident that this bill is compatible with international obligations".
For the owner of the Home Office, the asylum system is currently "overburdened" by the tens of thousands of people who have arrived on small boats across the English Channel in recent years and immediate action is needed also because "the patience of British citizens is exhausted" after years of unfulfilled promises.
She further stated that there are "100 million people" worldwide who would be eligible for asylum under the law, adding: "Let's be clear, they are coming here."
The central point of the bill is the obligation for the interior minister to proceed with the expulsion of illegal immigrants to Rwanda or other third countries.
Only those under 18 who are medically unfit to fly or at "real risk" if repatriated to their country of origin will be able to appeal against deportation.
The measure will also prevent modern slavery laws from being used to challenge government decisions.
An annual limit on the number of people entering the Kingdom through safe routes, set by Parliament, will also be included in the bill.
The proposed law has been criticized by the Labor opposition: the shadow Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, called it "unfeasible" and "chaotic"
