‘A tragic reminder of why Rwanda plan is important’, Rishi says after child among 5 migrants killed in Channel crossing
RISHI Sunak last night hit back at Emmanuel Macron for attacking his Rwanda deportation plan the day it became law.
Tory MPs also let rip and told the French President to focus on stopping small boats leaving Calais in the first place.FIVE months after the Supreme Court appeared to have sunk the Rwanda plan, it is now back on track. The process of detaining those migrants earmarked for the first flights can now begin, although the Home Office is remaining tight-lipped over how they have been selected.
Time will tell if the legislation is as watertight as they hope - and whether it proves to be an effective deterrent for those considering piling into small boats. And it will open up a clear dividing line with Labour, who have said they would scrap the scheme altogether. The rift emerged as the Safety of Rwanda Act was finally signed into law and the new treaty ratified by both countries - meaning the Home Office can begin detaining those earmarked for the first flights.
