Good question, as immigration laws are not devolved.
We may end up with people coming here, but we don't really have much capacity to house people as-is. And then they get stuck in Limbo here, because knowing the Tories they don't care. Problem for NI, great, as nobody here votes Cons anyway. (200 whole votes last time lol)
The anti-immigrant "they get all the houses for free" (yeah those idiots are everywhere) crowd is already venting on social media.

Do I understand this correctly- the illegal migration act stated that those arriving here through a non sanctioned route would not have their application processed, they’d be left in limbo or sent to Rwanda.
But- it’s deemed illegal in NI (last couple of days news), so does this mean that if an asylum seeker heads to NI they can force the government to process their application?
