That Rwanda debate never, ever goes away, does it?

On Monday, the House of Commons will be voting again on a series of amendments that have gone through the House of Lords.


The game of parliamentary ping pong is on, but overnight, another genius idea has come from our government, oh yes.

If you come to this country illegally and you fail your asylum claim, you are given the opportunity to voluntarily go back to your country and we’ll help you do it.

Nigel Farage shares his thoughts on the latest Rwanda plan

But in some cases, let’s say you’ve come from Syria. Well, we’re not going to return you there because we don’t think that’s safe.

So the new master plan is rather than forcibly removing you to Rwanda, we’re going to pay you to go to Rwanda.

Yeah, we’re going to give you £3,000 spending money to go to Rwanda. You’re going to get five years free accommodation.

I mean, you couldn’t make this up, could you?

And the total cost estimated now from the Office of National Statistics is that for every single person that goes to Rwanda, if any do, the cost would be an estimated £171,000 per person that goes.

But the idea that £3,000, little bit of pocket money, and five years free accommodation, and a chance to work, the idea that that somehow will reduce the numbers coming across the English Channel is for the birds.

After all, you could buy a very, very cheap little kayak or kiddy dinghy in one of the main supermarkets around Calais or Boulogne, and on a nice day in June or July, row across the Channel.

Say you come from Syria or somewhere like that and you get three grand every time you do it.

I think if anything, it might actually encourage more people to cross the English Channel.

I think they are in absolutely dire straits with all of this. I’ve never thought the Rwanda plan was going to work.
