The US has agreed a deal to deport hundreds of illegal migrants to Rwanda.
Washington has already sent an initial list of ten people to be vetted as part of President Donald Trump’s bid to tackle illegal immigration.
Under the terms of the deal, Rwanda will accept up to 250 migrants in exchange for payment – in an agreement similar to that brokered by Boris Johnson.
When he was prime minister, Mr Johnson agreed a deal with Kigali under which anyone who entered Britain illegally would be sent to Rwanda.
But due to legal challenges, no migrants had been successfully deported by the time Keir Starmer won the election last year.
