Showdown over boats Bill could put Rwanda flights back for months
Evening Standard
|March 19, 2024
PEERS were preparing for a constitutional showdown with the Government over its Rwanda Bill which could delay deportation flights for months.
Rishi Sunak is facing opposition from Labour, Liberal Democrat, crossbench and some Tory peers.
The Prime Minister is still aiming to get spring flights carrying asylum seekers to Rwanda and the Government saw off 10 amendments from peers to the Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Bill last night.
The parliamentary showdown will continue tomorrow, when peers will seek to press for new changes in a process branded “ping-pong”.
Former Labour lord chancellor Lord Falconer signalled that many peers would try to amend the Bill again despite the firm stance from the Commons.
