Suella Braverman Hails Rwanda Asylum Housing After Visit
The Home Secretary Suella Braverman has returned to the House of Commons today to once again defend her controversial migration bill after a trip to Rwanda.
Over the weekend, Braverman took a tour of a possible migrant housing complex in the east African state’s capital, Kigali.
She appeared delighted with the project, despite it still being embroiled in a legal battle, which has seen a total of zero migrant flights land in the country since she announced the plan last year.
It’s already cost the government £140 million.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper insisted the UK-France return deal would “fundamentally undermine” the smugglers organising the crossings.
Under the pilot scheme, for each small boat migrant sent back across the English Channel, an asylum seeker will be allowed to enter the UK from France under a legal route.

Donald Trump will be hosted by the King and Queen at Windsor Castle during his unprecedented second state visit to the UK from September 17 to 19, Buckingham Palace said.
