We’re expecting Sunak to give a statement from Downing Street shortly on the Rwanda bill, before it is voted on in the Commons later today.

“No more prevarication, no more delay,” was his rallying cry at a meeting of the government’s illegal migration operations committee this morning.

The PM said the bill sends a “clear message” that illegal migrants will not be able to stay in the UK.

He said Rwanda is a “safe country”, adding that his “landmark legislation” comes after “months and months of hard work and planning”.
