This response was epic
Rwanda
Also during the session Starmer said in the Commons that Rishi Sunak had not read the details of the new Rwanda agreement. “Annexe A says on top of the £140m he has already showered on Rwanda, when we send people there under this treaty we have to pay for their accommodation and their upkeep for five years. That is not all, this morning a government minister admitted that anyone we send to Rwanda who commits a crime can be returned to us.”
Referring to claims that James Cleverly called the plan “batshit”, the Labour leader added: “I am beginning to see why the home secretary said the Rwanda scheme was something to do with ‘bat’, I think, was it?
“What does he first think attracted Mr Kagame to hundreds of millions of pounds for nothing in return?”
Human Rights
Rishi Sunak has said that the new Rwanda bill will disapply Human Rights Act for small boat deportations.
Rishi Sunak said: “I have been unequivocal that we can no longer tolerate the endless scourge of illegal migration on our country.
“It is costing us billions of pounds and costing innocent lives, and that is why we are taking action to put a stop to it and make clear once and for all that it is parliament that should decide who comes to this country, not criminal gangs.
“Through this new landmark emergency legislation, we will control our borders, deter people taking perilous journeys across the Channel and end the continuous legal challenges filling our courts.
“And we will disapply sections of the Human Rights Act from the key parts of the bill, specifically in the case of Rwanda, to ensure our plan cannot be stopped.”
