Four more House of Lords defeats for the government tonight on #RwandaBill , by margins of 17 to 57 votes. This speech by Lord Hope, ex-Deputy President of UK Supreme Court, well expresses the idiocy of what we are being asked to do hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2024-04-…. /1
Given how much confusion there is out there, this from Michael Foran is extremely helpful. If you’re worried, or just interested, about what the Hate Crime Act does, please watch this.
Here are the amendments which House of Lords has made to the #RwandaBill . UK House of Commons will consider them tomorrow.

Five more big victories in #RwandaBill debates today, to add to Monday’s haul. We had a debate on the proposed new cl5 power for Ministers to disregard r39 interim measures from the ECtHR. My first contribution is here: hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2024-03-… /1
Very important initiative- Women in UK Public Law Group. Well done, Daniella Lock and others.
Five huge majorities in House of Lords today to amend #RwandaBill , with more votes likely on Wednesday (Afghans, children, victims of slavery, clause 4, backlog). My rule of law amendments, supported by Ken Clarke and others, went through by 87 and 91 votes - others by 100+.
Clear and informative post, as always from Tom Hickman, on deprivation of citizenship orders, as used to stop Shamima Begum returning to the UK.
