Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman threatens to vote against the Rwanda Bill

Suella Braverman, the former Home Secretary, has issued a warning to the Prime Minister, suggesting that 'dozens' of Conservative MPs could resign if changes are not made to the Rwanda Bill. Braverman has stated that she will vote against the legislation if the amendments proposed by Robert Jenrick, a key figure in the rebellion, are not accepted. The bill has already gained support from fifty backbenchers, including former Prime Minister Liz Truss.

Braverman expressed her concerns about the current state of the Rwanda Bill, stating that it does not serve the British public and amounts to a betrayal. She emphasized the need for improvements to the legislation, indicating that if no changes are made, she will vote against it.

'Dozens' of ministers share concerns about the Bill

Braverman revealed that she has spoken to numerous ministers who have grave reservations about the Rwanda Bill. She suggested that privately, many ministers express doubts about the effectiveness of the legislation, with some even stating that they know it won't work.
