Being Gäy With Fear Of Discrimination In Your Country Not Enough Reason To Seek Asylum –UK Home Secretary

The United Kingdom's Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, has said that being gay or a woman with fear that they could be discriminated against in their country of origin is not enough reason to seek asylum in the UK or any Western country.

Braverman, who said this in a bold speech in Washington D.C., warned that uncontrolled immigration is an 'existential threat' to the West.

She argued that multiculturalism had 'failed', adding that many of those migrating to the Western world were not in peril.

According to her, uncontrolled immigration fuels crime.

She, therefore, called for an overhaul of United Nations (UN) refugee rules and warned that unless governments found a way of controlling their borders, they would 'not endure'.

According to Braverman, the UN treaty played a key role in the crisis that has seen nearly 110,000 migrants cross the Channel on dinghies to reach Britain since 2018.

She said, "The vast majority have passed through multiple safe countries, and in some instances have resided in safe countries for several years. In this sense, there is an argument that they should cease to be treated as refugees when considering the legitimacy of their onward movement."

Braverman noted that the UN Convention defines refugees as those with a "well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion."
