this shithole is where they've chosen to come to! the £3k thing would also be something they'd choose.

yes, so anyway...a choice. Originally it was there as a deterrent...they would be forced to seek asylum in Rwanda instead of here.

the £3k thing is something completely different 9to the small boat immigration law changes), and a version of that offer (Rwanda as the destination is the new part) has been around for years

Goves extremism definition will fade to be a meaningless nothing within a few months its a solution to a problem which doesn't exist.

£3k to go to Rwanda is definitely a great deal.

Just like convicts being pardoned the death penalty to go to Australia was a great deal.

 

It's not a real offer. It's a threat disguised as a bribe.

There are no Black women in the Labour Shadow Cabinet and almost a third of the MPs elected as Labour but sitting now as independents are Black women. Clearly Starmer and the party have a misogynoir issue.

Being dumped in Rwanda with £3K isn’t exactly a ticket to a life of happiness is it? It won’t happen anyway, they are clutching at straws. Racist straws. 

They paid more than that to come over in the first place.

Maybe the government could offer UK citizens a nice pay off to bugger off to a nice safe other country if they are sick to death of the vile people running  the UK now?

I see Hester has given another £5 million to the Tories - nasty racist git that he is

3 MPs, right?...2 were because of antisemitism allegations, 1 was because of harassment charges.

Rayner has said that she hopes Abbott has the whip restored, and that she stands at the next election. May or may not be significant. Important that this comes from a redhead.
