Work visa routes, on the basis of family or marriage, study visa etc. There are options. There are usually also specific relocation schemes for certain conflicts or areas.

By all means Uk immigration is a complete mess and the Home Office is terrible but there are legal avenues that can be used.

Given the bad PR any airline will get operating this flight and the Gov’s desire to make it happen I would imagine it’s a healthy paying contract. Although don’t be surprised if state owned Rwandair operate it.
Export more taxpayers cash .
