[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

Airlines that fly asylum seekers to Rwanda on behalf of the UK government could be in breach of human rights laws, UN experts have warned.

Even if the UK-Rwanda agreement and the ‘Safety of Rwanda’ bill are approved, airlines and aviation regulators could be complicit in violating internationally protected human rights and court orders by facilitating removals to Rwanda.

If airlines and aviation authorities give effect to state decisions that violate human rights, they must be held responsible for their conduct.

“Objections to the government's flagship Rwanda Bill by some peers are "patronising" and "border on racism", the deputy foreign secretary has said”.

Deportation flights to Rwanda will take off in summer, Rishi Sunak says

The first flights deporting asylum seekers to Rwanda will take off in "10 to 12 weeks" the prime ministers says.

“We will sit there until my bill is passed”

Reeks of public school, House Captain, I’ll scweem and scweeem and scweem until I’m sthick, wait ‘till Papa hears of this, poncery.

Revolting individual.

It’s painfully obvious to anyone with the power of cognition that Sunak’s final solution of trafficking asylum seekers to Rwanda to stop people trafficking asylum seekers will never happen. Nor would it work if it were to happen.

He’s already blaming “Labour and lawyers” for its failure.

Nope, it’s failed because it’s illegal, inhumane, unworkable, and nonsensical.

And you’re an incompetent nincompoop.

If/when it fails surely a 'normal' person would accept that the game is up and they are no longer able to govern and be forced to call a general election?!

You’d think.

The desperation to try and get a few asylum seekers on plane to Rwanda at huge cost to the taxpayer is one the most unedifying things I have ever seen. This government is just utterly disgusting without an ounce of humanity in it. Trying to save face by treating desperate people in the cruellest possible way and then screaming like petulant children in a supermarket aisle when it is pointed out to them that the LAW prevents them from doing this.

Rwanda is all they have right now and it is just pitiful.

A rebuke for the Solicitor General for the case against Trudi Warner, and case thrown out.

Her placard simply summarised the principle of jury equity. Her conduct was consistent with information sharing.

Giving a press conference whilst Parliament is sitting; again bypassing questions and scrutiny. A wannabee dictator.

This is how Alison Thewliss from the SNP ended her speech on the bill.

This legislation is utterly despicable. It is state-sponsored people trafficking, it is against our obligations and international law and Scotland wants no part of it. We will oppose it every step of the way.

f***ing Amen!

Yes, it's yet more Tory lies. Blaming Labour peers for blocking the Bill when Labour does not have a majority in the House of Lords (no party does).

And claiming that Kigali is safer than London - a snide dog-whistle attack on Sadiq Khan as Mayor of London?

Someone needs to give Sunak and his Brownshirts a proper public dressing down.

He needs his pants very publicly pulled down.

Ken Clarke, that well known Labour peer!

In 2018, 12 asylum seekers were shot in Kigali by the police

For a Party which campaigned for Brexit (partly) on the grounds that it wanted to reclaim parliamentary sovereignty, this government really does seem to hold Parliament - along with the rest of us - in contempt.

What the Tories really want is for the House of Commons and House of Lords to rubber-stamp the Government's cruel or ill-judged legislation, rather than fulfil Parliament's historic constitutional role of scrutinising the Executive, and holding Ministers to account.

What's the betting that they reopen legal routes for migration , the boats stop crossing and they claim a victory?...
No trick too slimy for the modern Tory party.

As Clarke says if Labour let it through, the supreme court will need to act again against a government that is completely out of control.

I used to vote for them because of people like him and Heseltine. The party has lost the plot, not being racist enough for the crypto-fascists on the right but losing the centre.

I see they got their bill through. From here it will be lefty lawyers, foreign courts, ECHR this, ECHR that etc etc ...

The question is if anyone does go to Rwanda, who do they send back in return as part of the 1:1 swap?

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
