A ‘tent city’ of asylum seekers has been cleared from the streets of Dublin.

Officials in Ireland launched an operation to move a group of people who had been sleeping rough near Dublin’s International Protection Office on Mount Street.Migrants’ tents were bundled up earlier today and people were herded onto several coaches.Many of the migrants’ belongings were dumped in a skip or taken away by police. The group were taken to two separate sites - Dublin’s Citywest hotel and a temporary accommodation site in Crooksling.

The Irish government has proposed new legislation to make it easier to send migrants to the UK, effectively reversing an Irish High Court ruling that the UK was no longer a "safe third country" for returning asylum seekers because of the Rwanda plan.But Mr Sunak told ITV News there was no desire in Westminster to accept asylum seekers back from Ireland."We're not interested in that.
