Migrant emergency declared after Lords stall Rwanda Bill

More than 4,000 people are thought to have travelled from France this year, Home Office figures show with at least another 300 yesterday. There were 29,437 arrivals across the whole of 2023, down 36% on a record 45,774 in 2022.

MPs are not scheduled to debate the Government's Rwanda Bill until Westminster returns from its Easter break as ministers stand off with the Lords.

Ambition

The legislation aims to stop the boats, one of PM Rishi Sunak's key pledges.

Dame Andrea Leadsom, inset, said she was "disgusted that Labour tried to stop it in the Lords yet again".
