This would have been more persuasive had he not been a Tory MP for the last fourteen years!

The idea that parliament would even consider a bill which didn't comply with UK and international law shows how low the government has sunk.
"In all, peers backed five changes to the bill on Monday night, including ensuring it complied with the rule of law and that parliament cannot declare Rwanda to be safe until the treaty with its promised safeguards is fully implemented."

@npub1g0t…tvm4 as a believer in the need for PR (and greater conditional change) for the UK, I find the argument against it that it will give representation to the far right strange.
It's like saying "if you hold views different from the mainstream, you shouldn't be allowed to vote".
It's fundamentally an undemocratic view.

Tufton St-based climate sceptic "think tank" close to government estimates cost of climate change adaptation and investment at three times official estimates.
The Tories are a death cult.
