   Episode 2: The downfall of the 'Dublin III Regulation'

   This is a special episode that focuses on the European Union, rather than the United Kingdom. Even after Brexit, it is important to understand the immigration system the United Kingdom has been a part of for the last seven years to gain a more precise view on how refugees entered the country during these times. This episode explains what the Dublin III Regulation is by exploring its initial objectives and why the regulation has failed to fulfill them. It then goes into the European Commission's proposition of reform to find a more effective immigration system within the European Union.
