Refugees: English Law's Protection or Persecution? - Leslie Thomas KC

How are refugees protected in English law? This lecture traces the history of refugee protection, the limits of the Refugee Convention, and changes to the law in recent decades that have made refugees’ lives increasingly difficult. The Government’s latest tranche of policies: the Nationality and Borders Act 2022 and the Rwanda offshoring scheme, are particularly brutal. Is it time to reverse anti-refugee policies and create safe and legal routes for refugees to reach the UK, without a number cap? This lecture was recorded by Leslie Thomas KC on 18th April 2024 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London Leslie is Gresham Professor of Law.
