The UK Supreme Court ruling against the government's deportation deal was judged solely on whether Rwanda is a safe place to send asylum-seekers. The Rwandan government tells Sky News it has worked hard to make sure the country is functional and wants to give people a home.

'Come as a guest, leave as a friend' is the sign that greets visitors as they drive into the grounds of Hope Hostel.

No one has come to stay as a guest since late May 2022 when the UK government first booked out the 50-room building in anticipation of the approval of its plan to deport unwanted asylum seekers here.
