It’s a performative piece of cruelty
If you want to adequately manage refugees and asylum seekers then you make application accessible to the people seeking asylum.
If you are a 16 kid in DRC (for instance), you have no route to claim asylum in the U.K. beyond “illegal” means.
In addition it’s a class system. Can you afford a passport and a plane ticket? Welcome!
