The Guardian – PM faces calls to put Afghan concession in Rwanda bill
The Guardian reports the prime minister is under pressure to make last-minute concessions to secure the passage of his Rwanda deportation bill. Conservative MPs are calling for concessions in the Rwanda bill. They want people from Afghanistan who served alongside UK forces in the past to be protected from being sent to Rwanda if they are found among those who arrive on a small boat across the English Channel. The paper says that Rishi Sunak’s “patience is wearing thin” at the multiple hold-ups to his proposal.
Elsewhere, Peres Jepchirchir is pictured on the front page. The Kenyan marathon runner broke a world record for women by completing the London race in two hours, 16 minutes and 16 seconds.
