Following the passing of the UK Government's Rwanda scheme last week, Guy takes a broader look at migration, and irregular migration in particular. He looks at the figures in the UK and globally and summarises the main reasons for migration and the policy options available to governments to respond to migration. These include more puntive ones along more reward-oriented ones. Guy then looks at the EU's New Pact on Migration and Asylum and its objectives and the extent to which the British approach and its Rwanda scheme falls short.
