Dominic Raab plans law to ignore European rulings blocking Rwanda deportations
Sky News says THE DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER wants to introduce a Bill of Rights to ignore European Court of Human Rights judgments blocking removal flights to Rwanda.
Dominic Raab is introducing the proposed legislation, which would also increase deportations of foreign criminals, to parliament on Wednesday after the court in Strasbourg disputed the government’s heavily-criticised policy of sending asylum seekers to the east African nation.
