…the Rwanda plan could go pear shaped.
Who came up with that asinine idea? Can I presume it’s survived legal challenges only because the UK is no longer part of the EU? Likely abandoned after a Labour win?

You know I'm not sure where it came from, somewhere out of desperation!
It is one of the many many 'advantages' of leaving the EU, along with the toxic ring of sewage around the island.
I can't see Labour getting rid of it, immigration is more of an issue in their areas.
It's a real shit show.
Jonathan Powell proposed it under Labour and Blaire back in 2003, but to Kenya and South Africa. They also proposed leaving the ECHR!
The Rwanda plan isn't actually original to the UK either. Denmark and Israel both used Rwanda for the same purposes, Australia did their equivalent (with great success, it seems), and even the EU had attempted it to Niger.
