Rebel Tories round on PM over failure to enact emergency legislation on deportations

FURIOUS Tories have called for migrants to be put on planes to Rwanda immediately because the patience of the British public has run out.

Rishi Sunak is facing demands for emergency legislation to revive the deportation plan after the Supreme Court ruled it was illegal.

Conservative deputy chairman Lee Anderson even called on the Government to "ignore the laws" and send migrants to Rwanda the same day they arrive in the UK.

The MP said the judgment marked a "dark day for the British people" and urged ministers to "just put the planes in the air now and send them to Rwanda".

Mr Anderson added: "The British people have been very patient, I've been very patient and now they're demanding action.

"This has sort of forced our hand a little bit now. My take is we should just put the planes in the air now, send them to Rwanda and show strength.

"It's time for the Government to show real leadership. We should ignore the laws and send them the straight back the same day."

Allies of sacked Home Secretary Suella Braverman claim Street repeatedly blocked Downing roulette British her to the Government against legal challenges. Mrs Braverman is said to have proposed plans for UK asylum officials to be based in Kigali, the Rwandan capital, to process the claims.

Sources said it could have prevented the Rwanda deportation scheme from being grounded over fears around "refoulement".
