The United Kingdoms withdrawal from the European Union on February 1, 2020, through Brexit (British Exit) has had significant implications for the countrys refugee policies. Before Brexit, the UKs refugee policies were subject to the Dublin Convention established by the European Union, which regulated the distribution quota of refugees among member states. This provision was considered detrimental to the UK due to the surge in the number of refugees it was required to accommodate. Post-Brexit, the UK implemented a new policy, the New Plan for Immigration, which has been criticized for being inconsistent with the 1951 Convention On the Status of Refugees. This study analyses the international legal framework concerning refugee protection and evaluates the UKs policies in handling refugees after Brexit. The research employs a juridical approach using historical, statutory, and comparative methods. The secondary data is collected through literature studies and analyzed qualitatively and descriptively. The findings indicate that international refugee protection is governed by the 1951 Convention and its 1967 Protocol, the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and other regional legal instruments. Post-Brexit, the UK faces uncertainty in handling asylum seekers as it is no longer bound by the Dublin Convention or the Eurodac system of the European Union. No formal agreement has been established between the UK and the EU regarding asylum management, creating challenges in the UKs immigration policies.

Conclusion

Following Brexit, the UKs refugee policies have undergone significant changes, particularly with the implementation of the New Plan for Immigration.This plan has faced criticism for potentially conflicting with international legal obligations, specifically the 1951 Refugee Convention.The absence of a formal agreement with the EU regarding asylum management has created uncertainty and challenges in the UKs immigration policies.Therefore, the UK needs to establish a clear mechanism for processing asylum applications and ensure its policies align with international standards to uphold its commitment to refugee protection.

Future Research

Penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan untuk mengeksplorasi dampak jangka panjang dari kebijakan New Plan for Immigration terhadap akses pengungsi ke perlindungan hukum di Inggris, termasuk analisis mendalam mengenai efektivitas dan implikasi etis dari kebijakan eksternalisasi. Selain itu, studi komparatif dapat dilakukan untuk membandingkan pendekatan Inggris terhadap pengelolaan pengungsi pasca-Brexit dengan negara-negara lain yang juga mengalami perubahan dalam kebijakan imigrasi mereka, guna mengidentifikasi praktik terbaik dan potensi risiko. Terakhir, penelitian perlu difokuskan pada pengembangan kerangka hukum yang lebih komprehensif dan adaptif untuk menangani tantangan baru dalam perlindungan pengungsi di era globalisasi, dengan mempertimbangkan prinsip-prinsip non-refoulement dan hak asasi manusia, serta kebutuhan untuk kerja sama internasional yang lebih erat dalam mengatasi masalah pengungsi secara adil dan berkelanjutan. Penelitian-penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan wawasan yang berharga bagi pembuat kebijakan dan praktisi hukum dalam merumuskan kebijakan yang lebih efektif dan humanis dalam menangani isu pengungsi.
