Sunak says he is 'determined to get Rwanda scheme through'

Rishi Sunak has expressed his hopes of getting the Rwanda bill through parliament and flights up and running by Spring.

It comes as MPs are set to vote on the House of Lords amendments to the bill today.

In November, the Supreme Court ruled the African nation isn't a safe place to send asylum seekers.

"We aim to get a flight off in the Spring.

It's important that we get the Rwanda scheme up and running because we need a deterrent," Mr Sunak said.

Tories say migration deals ‘won’t work’ as deterrent

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp has argued that migration deals similar to those in Italy will not be effective as a deterrent. His comments follow official figures showing that over 800 migrants crossed the English Channel in the past week. Philp acknowledged that prevention deals could be a “constructive step,” but insisted they would not succeed without a proper deterrent, while defending the previous government's Rwanda deportation plan.
