defence secretary wanted a change to ensure people who have served the uk and abroad, for instance, in afghanistan for the military, would be exempt from being sent to rwanda. now, that amendment has been withdrawn this evening. there is a sufficient recognition from labour and others that they do buy what the government is saying in terms of being reassuring. but things are not over yet. it is back in the house of commons right now. this trundles on into the night. so the day is not yet over, but this is the story of the day so far. rwanda, is this country in east africa at least part of the solution to the huge pressures of international migration? the government thinks so, but it's been one heck of a journey to try to get asylum seekers sent there. no ifs, no buts, these flights are going to rwanda. enough is enough. no more prevarication. no more delay. parliament will sit there tonight and vote, no matter how late it goes. and, he said, once their idea is law, they are ready. we've increased detention spaces to 2200. to quickly process claims, we've got 200 trained, dedicated caseworkers read
