PROBLEM SOLVED
A spaceship landed on the lawn
out stepped some aliens all forlorn.
When the Border Official said, uneasily,
‘I can’t let you stay, you’re here illegally,
you’ll have to re-route and fly to Rwanda!’
at which the aliens downcast Commander
said ‘Please not that, don’t penalise us,
we’ll come quietly, we’ll get on the bus
and make our way to an asylum hotel
where we can settle and peacefully dwell.
while you hunt the gangs and break their cartel.
But the Official replied ‘Their location’s unknown
and your presence here we cannot condone’,
at which the Commander, in pleading tone,
said, ‘Please I implore you don’t send us home,
and if you’ll allow us here to reside
I’ll disclose to you where the traffickers hide:
they stay on a planet way up in the stars
in a big red house on the planet Mars.
And this gave the official a great idea
a panacea,
to solve the problems of immigration
which are causing such problems across the nation,
by knocking the idea of Rwanda on the head
and sending all migrants to Mars instead.

Good write M.
I knew some aliens (so I say). Earthlings punished them for coming to Earth, saying, 'You'll have to watch a week of 'Eastenders' now'. They turned round and went back home! lol.
