it's very dangerous making the crossing. yes. maybe when i will go to rwanda again. - ah... come again, it's difficult. so if you were sent to rwanda, you'd try coming back again. yes, i will come again. yeah. i will keep the struggle. but the government insists the bill will act as a deterrent to these dangerous crossings. and, after two years, legal challenges and appeals and amendments from the lords. they're determined it will become law on monday. the priority now is to get this bill passed, right? at the end of the day, we've got to get this bill passed and i've said now, very clearly, we're going to get this done on monday. we don't want any more prevarication or delay. enough from the labour party. we're going to get this bill passed and then we will work to get flights off so we can build that deterrent. because that is the only way to resolve this issue. but charities working with asylum—seekers say the law won't see the end of small—boat

afghanistan, labour peer des browne, lord browne, wanting to see anyone who has helped the uk forces overseas exempt from being sent to rwanda. i've spoken to labour sources in the lords last night. they say they are willing to accept a compromise on that if the government is willing to offer a concession. however, the government seemingly in no mood to compromise on that. it will be interesting to see how long that bounces between the house of commons and house of lords this afternoon. the other amendment is around an independent monitoring committee to assess on an ongoing basis whether rwanda is safe to receive asylum seekers from the uk. the government says both those amendments are not necessary and that there are already sufficient safeguards within the bill as it stands, and it certainly seems like they are not willing to compromise. we can expect rishi sunak to argue against that. the other thing that will be interesting to keep an eye out for is whether we get any more details about the timings of any
