The proposed Rwanda Bill is heading back to the Commons for two days of debate this afternoon, with the aim of deterring asylum seekers from coming to the UK via small boat crossings.

Rishi Sunak has said the new bill, which includes clauses to define Rwanda as a "safe country" and reduces the ability for people to appeal, answers the concerns of the the UK Supreme Court - which ruled the plan unlawful - while also ensuring deportations will take place.

But many on the right of the party - including Mr Jenrick, who resigned as immigration minister over the issue - want the prime minister to toughen up the legislation with a raft of amendments, including one that would block injunctions on flights taking off.
