People seeking international protection being moved from outside the International Protection Office on Mount Street on Wednesday morning. by the Minister for Justice has led to an intemperate squabble with the UK government and surely played into the decision to remove migrants camped outside the Office of International Protection on Mount Street in Dublin.
Likewise, Micheál Martin has a well-deserved reputation for being calm and measured, but the Tánaiste choose to double down on McEntee’s comments, linkingthey found a willing counterpart in UK prime minister Rishi Sunak. He leapt on Martin’s comments, which he interpreted as proof the Rwanda plan was already working, despite no flights to the African country having left the tarmac.
Both sides seem to have lost sight early on of the fact that an agreement on the very issue of migrant return was reached in 2020, although not activated. Low-key dialogue based on this agreement would have been the way to try to resolve the issue because – despite any short-term political gain from talking tough ahead of elections – it is not in the longer-term interest of either country to be seen to be playing ping-pong with migrants on the border.
The absence of a longer-term strategy will only encourage those looking to capitalise on immigration for their own ends. And it will continue to leave many asylum seekers in limbo and without adequate supports.The trail of alleged right-wing plotters in Germany is a bizarre story of our times
