Suella Braverman could ban the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) from grounding Rwanda deportation flights, according to reports. The Home Secretary is holding talks with up to 60 Conservative MPs who want to strip Strasbourg judges of the right to meddle with Britain’s immigration policy.
Ministers may agree to block the use of a controversial mechanism used by the ECHR to block the first flight to Rwanda last June, the Telegraph reports.
The move is in a bid to pacify what is set to be the biggest rebellion of Rishi Sunak’s premiership, according to the newspaper.
It would mean migrants who travel to the UK illegally could be deported even if they challenge the Government under human rights law.
