Migrants exploit Ireland-UK travel route to bypass border checks

dailymail.co.uk

Migrants are using a bus route from Dublin to Belfast as a pathway into the UK, bypassing border checks. This has led to an increase in undocumented arrivals. The Common Travel Area allows free movement between Ireland and the UK for citizens, but its lack of physical border enforcement facilitates this new route. Many migrants are former UK asylum seekers who left due to the Rwanda plan. The UK's scrapping of the Rwanda policy and Ireland's stricter asylum measures have prompted migrants to return to Britain via this bus route. This situation highlights the complexities of immigration and border control.
