Speaking at a 'PM Connect' Q&A event in Accrington in Lancashire, Sunak expressed confidence he could get the scheme through parliament, saying that the legislation would be brought before parliament in the coming weeks. Sunak has made 'stopping the boats' one of his top five priorities, and is seeking to revive the plan after the supreme court upheld an appeal court ruling that found there was a real risk of deported refugees having their claims in the east African country wrongly assessed or being returned to their country of origin to face persecution.
