Another plank in UK Conservative platform for leaving the EU has been
sawn in half...They are doing extremely well so far. Johnson and co are
among the best negotiators and politicians the UK has ever had...;-)

EU not expected to allow new agreement to replace Dublin Regulation.
Britain is set to lose its power to send asylum seekers back to other EU
countries after the Brexit transition period ends, throwing the
government’s immigration policy into disarray.
EU negotiators have reportedly rejected UK requests for a new agreement
to replicate the Dublin Regulation, which binds EU member states to
process certain asylum claims at the request of their neighbours.
The provision is used regularly by the UK to turn back refugees arriving
on the south coast after travelling overland through France and other
European countries.
Michel Barnier, the EU’s chief Brexit negotiator, is expected on Friday
to elaborate on the situation, which has moved into the spotlight after
an uptick in the number of dinghies landing on the Kent coast in recent
months.
Under the current system, certain asylum seekers can be returned to the
member state where they first entered the EU even if they claimed asylum
in another country such as the UK.
