Is the Rwanda policy finally pulling the Tories apart?. Since 2022 Pritti Patel launched this ridiculous policy, the Tories have thrown money and Home Secretaries at this policy. Let’s consider: it will cost £65 k more per refugee to get and keep the refugee in Rwanda than keeping them in UK. Then UK will need to pay for a Monitoring Body and an Appeals body of UK and Commonwealth judges. That’s in addition to the £140m already handed over (up £20m from initial payment). If the refugee commits a crime in Rwanda they will be returned to…the UK. Then there is the unspecified number of vulnerable Rwandan refugees we have to take in exchange. But of course this policy is preferred to taking up the French god’s offer to build a processing plant in Calais!

Bereavement wipes out everything
A drop in the ocean in the great schemes of things....but replicated by how many more
