Archbishop of Canterbury speaks out against UK migration policies.

TL;DR Summary
The Archbishop of Canterbury has criticised the UK government's Illegal Migration Bill, saying it risks "great damage" to the country's reputation and fails in its "moral responsibility" towards refugees. The bill, which aims to stop small boat crossings, has faced opposition from charities and opposition parties, who argue it is unworkable and could breach international law. The bill would place a legal duty on the home secretary to detain and remove those arriving in the UK illegally, to Rwanda or another "safe" third country. The bill is expected to face significant opposition in the House of Lords, where the government does not have a majority.
