The former home secretary Suella Braverman—who was sacked on Monday—has said the government needs to end its “self-deception” about being able to make its flagship Rwanda policy for illegal immigrants palatable to the UK Supreme Court and the European Court of Human Rights.
In an article in the Telegraph, Ms. Braverman said the government’s current position would mean no deportation flights would depart for Rwanda before the general election and she set out a five-point plan for getting them underway.
