Then home secretary Suella Braverman (pictured) and immigration minister Robert Jenrick – who have both since defected to Reform - oversaw the introduction of the scheme, which is still in operation Hadi Alodid, 30, from Sudan, has been charged with attempted murder and possession of a knife, as well as a separate charge of making threats to kill an NHS radiographer. He appeared at Belfast magistrates' court on Wednesday and was remanded in custody
